Overview
NASPi is a NUC-style NAS storage solution based on the latest Raspberry Pi 4. It supports 2.5-inch SATA
HDD/SSD. All the Raspberry Pi 4 interfaces are adjusted to the back through the X-C1 adapter board, build
in software safety shutdown function, using PWM fan can dynamically adjust the speed of the fan
according to the temperature of the CPU. The shell is made of all aluminum alloy, CNC processing method,
surface anodizing treatment.
NASPI adopts modular design, and NASPi is composed of three parts: X823 storage shield, X-C1 adapter
board, heat dissipation system(include X823-A3 metal fan bracket and 4010 PWM fan), and they will be
packed into a ALU-case to get a complete NASPi;
X823 provides 2.5 inch HDD/SSD storage function(UASP supported);
X-C1 provides power management, interface adapter and safe shutdown function
For the heat dissipation system, we chose a relatively simple and practical heat dissipation solution: a
custom metal bracket and a PWM fan to achieve it. in fact, you can use P165-B to get same function, but
maybe P165-B will have a slight impact on WIFI.
