About this deal

The fan will be triggered by one of two separate settings, the CPU temperature, or the HDD temperature.

I'm also thinking about picking up some cheap silicone thermal pads and slapping 'em on the side of the hard drives, where they mount to the back panel. It’s still a computer… it has network, storage and memory… but as stated it is a Raspbery Pi and it does have limited computes. Tinkering with a device that keeps your data safe, isn’t the best approach, but the GPIO header offers physical interactions (on already tested projects) and Raspberry Pi 4 inside provides enough headroom to handle storage and additional services you may need in your home. You can use existing drives with data already on them if the format/partition is readable by Linux/Raspberry Pi OS.I found a very handy tool: DiskInternals Linux reader to save my stuff from EXT4/EXT3 formatted drives on Windows without actually powering the boards on. drives) I put some brass stand offs in the fan holes, and lowered the fan by about the diameter of the fan hub. If it's using a Compute Module 4 instead and just using "Raspberry Pi 4" for name recognition, it could swap the USB-to-SATA bridge for a PCIe SATA controller - which would drop the overhead considerably.

However we'll be updating all the Argon Cases for the Raspberry Pi 5 to maximize all the new features of the RPi5.

Anyone keen on trying to use GPIO pins for something cool, also have access to the 40-pin header at the back of the case. As Raspberry Pi 4 has removed the biggest limitation of the board for NAS use, Argon Eon offers access at 1Gbps via Ethernet.
