“Product works as advertised and great speeds with NVME. Two small criticisms:
1. Please send assembly instructions with the product or at least a QR code to digital instructions. This would have made things much simpler for me.
2. The ribbon cable and the data port aren't super sturdy. Please consider possibly using a port similar to the one Rpi foundation uses on the pi5 on the next revision. I wouldn't mind paying a few extra bucks. :)”
“It works, but with some caveats.
If you are using higher capacity nvme drives (2tb/4tb) you will need to provide extra power via the on board 5v/ground connectors. Soldering is needed. Would have been nice if there was a JST female connector already soldered.
Using M2 standoffs and scews for mounting the nvme drives is a bit odd. What is wrong with M2.5? I had to source my own screws because the provided screw heads were not wide enough to hold the drives.
The ribbon could be longer.
Even if the price would double using a gen3 switch, I would have liked to have that buying option.”
“Everything works out of the box super cool look! the only thing I would like is a case for this kind of base hat. I hope you guys will come up with something soon!”
