good case for dedicated boards.

Very beautiful. The quality of the acrylic is good as is the whole system. Fans do not have RGB settings, support color for any color space. They are big fans and have good airflow. Unfortunately, the fan cables aren't long enough to power a single board. This case is for always-on IoT devices because you need to parse the whole thing to add a Pi. It holds pi4B+, pi3B and pi0W well. Overall good.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Modernity

Needs more space between plates

Looks nice when assembled but is a little tricky. I wasn't sure if I wanted the LEDs to be on, but I don't mind. Luckily, I can just turn them off if I decide I don't want to turn them on. The fans are silent. Keeps my Raspberry Pis super cool. The only pity is that there is not enough space between the plates. If you have a fan or similar on your Pi and don't have enough space, you'll need to remove the plate above it. Therefore, in most cases, you cannot fully use the case.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • unreliable

Fans are the best part of it

Advantages:* Sound - quiet fan * Quality - durable enough, handle makes it easy to carry * Cooling - open design allows placing an additional fan * Supports SBC - upper compartment can accommodate a Jetson Nano or higher hat without using two bays Bad: * Quality - only 3 microSD extenders out of 12 worked * Flexibility - PI cannot be removed once in place without disassembling the entire case * Design /Construction - Assembling the case is a hassle I would have had to endure disassembling the…

Pros
  • understandable even for old people
Cons
  • crumpled

Very poor quality control

I bought a case for 4 Raspberry Pi from Geek Pi, it worked very well. I wanted a larger case for all my Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano, I was excited to see this product and jumped when there were no reviews. Unfortunately, there seem to be too many quality control issues to list and they definitely aren't worth the price. Yes - Missing nuts and bolts - The acrylic plates that the Pi is meant to be mounted on are so brittle that the side plate broke. The long metal rods that must be fixed along…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Communication with seller

The adapter on the SD side causes a kernel panic at boot.

I have over 50+ RPi so I'm not a newbie. The SD-side adapter contains hardware that makes the SD card accessible from the ETH0 side, causing the RPi kernel to panic on EVERY boot. I don't even get the RPi's "BIOS Screen". I've tried RPiOS, Ubuntu and about 3 other distros. I've tried more than 5 SD cards to make sure it's not a card. I don't want to boot from USB for various reasons. I also tried each of the 12 adapters to make sure it worked. I removed the adapter and all RPi and OS boots…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Blunt hardware

Very happy with this case

I ordered this 12 layer cluster case on Thursday and it arrived on Saturday so very happy with the fast delivery. Parcel arrived in good condition and all items were well packed. I chose this cluster case because I needed to reorganize my many Raspberry Pis that I use for various projects. I initially considered a rackmount solution, although that ultimately won out as I run some of my Raspberry drives off external SSDs (instead of a micro SD card) and the compatibility of the acrylic layers…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Long

Nice tower for lots of Pi, but tiring to build and be careful!

This is a well designed tower for 12 Pi or other devices and 3 fans help to keep them cool. This new model lets you skip the LED wires if you don't need colored fans. WARNING: If you're looking at this 12-device version and think you'll grow into it, know that it's easy to add devices as you go. You pretty much have to collect it and then leave; You'll find that if you start with a few devices and then want to add more, you'll have to completely disassemble it to add additional devices. If you…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There are cons
