Description

NOTES
  • Not include Raspberry Pi 4B & 2.5″ SATA HDD & X735board.

  • A microSD card is required for forceing the Raspbian OS to use the HDD/SSD for its “root” partition

  • Additional USB3.0 A Male to A Male cable is required (not supplied)

  • For use with original power supply unit only

  • Do not power your Raspberry Pi via the Pi’s 40-pin header and Type-C USB socket at the same time

  • We do not recommend using Samsung hard drives,Please use hard drives of other brands

  • Please try to use WIFI 5G AP if you find the 2.4G signal is unstable, because we found that USB 3.0 high-speed transmission will interfere with the Raspberry Pi’s 2.4G wifi signal. We think this is caused by the unreliability of the Raspberry Pi’s wifi design. If the Raspberry Pi Foundation reserves the SMA IPEX antenna interface, everything will become easier.

 
 
Overview:
  • The X829 dual 2.5″ SATA HDD expansion board, offering an easy and fast way to create bigger storage solution for your Raspberry Pi 4B. Its elegant and ultra-compact design allows two 2.5″ HDD/SSD to be conveniently attached to Raspberry Pi 4. The SuperSpeed USB 3.0 port delivers a blistering data transfer rate of up to 5Gbps, letting you transfer a large amount of data in seconds. The mounting holes and standoffs help protect the hard disk drives, while effectively drawing the heat away from the drive for reliable performance. The built-in LED light indicates the reading or writing status – no more guesswork again.

  • The X829 can be the perfect storage solution for your home media center and building Network-attached storage (NAS) for storing and streaming your own videos, music, and digital photos around the house and even across the world.

  • Please refer to X822 or X828 if you need dual SATA board for raspberry pi 3.
