“This seems a good quality item. It fits together well, unlike some other cases.
I used a Sabrent Rocket Q NVME M2 drive that I had spare and it worked well. I had initially tried an 'XPG' branded drive which was not recognised.
There is no slot to fit / remove an SD card but given the positinioning of the PCIE cable this wouldn't be possible anyway. It wasn't a particular issue to me as I was installing Home Assistant on & setting the Pi to boot from, the NVME, so once that was acheived (with the case not fastened together) I could remove the SD (there is just enough space on the PCIE cable to open the two halves of the case) before fastening the case together.
I would certainly recommend this item.”
“Great little case for my Pi5. Easy to understand instruction manual and had my Pi5 and NVMe ssd installed and running in no time.
The attached fan is quiet and along with the heat sink, itbdoes the job of keeping my Pi5 cool.”
“Great case. Low foot print and a quiet fan. Metal structure helps to dissipate heat. Very easy instructions to follow to get up and running with a raspberry pi booting off an nvme drive.”
“Entirely satisfactory, no complaints. Have on wrapped around a pi that I use as my everyday computer. No issues. Assembly is a bit fiddly but no show stoppers - you tube is your friend!
WIll buy again etc.”
“A compact and well made case with support for an NVME drive. Make sure that you check compatibility of any NVME drive you plan to use as not all of them work with this case. I used a Crucial P3 500GB M.2 NVME drive as they seem to work in everything and are my preferred NVME drive.
I did have a problem with one of the screws that hold the case together as it was too short but the three remaining screws do the job. Perhaps Neo need to look at this and supply one longer screw.
It looks good, runs cool and is wisper quiet.”
