Argon EON Pi NAS Case (Network Attached Storage) for Raspberry Pi 4

Product Information

I'm actually writing this up for Hackster right now, and spotted something I missed the first read-through: it's a four bay NAS, true enough.

now i'm worried, if it really is that simple (apart from the reverse proxy issue) why isn't it the default solution? This time around the case is more complicated as the board is deep inside the case with heat-generating drives mounted on top of the board. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable).

I appreciate the work that was put into the documentation but its not really self explaining for a newbe. The black, opaque acrylic panels are mounted thanks to embedded magnets and are probably the weakest link of this design.

This has worked well, but I would like to clean up my network a bit (less devices, more organized, less maintenance, less complexity). The OLED can display your IP address, CPU status and other functions required for the operation of your NAS.

I know that hardcore users will shout at me for using Raspberry Pi as a NAS but if I’m honest over nearly 5 years of storage, not a single bite was lost. Did some experimentation, 'cos I'll do literally anything instead of actual work: the OLED works fine at fan speeds of 14-100.

No boring black box here – instead we appear to have a pyramidical version of the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. A real-time clock allows for accurate time to be kept in the event of a power outage and automating tasks such as restarting or getting data through APIs. This script is very similar in feel to those used in the Argon ONE cases and it gives us granular control of the included case fan via the argon-config tool. There is a significant heft to the enclosure and feels just like something that should hold a chunk of your digitised life.You’ll save money and get a regular supply of in-depth reviews, features, guides and other Raspberry Pi enthusiast goodness delivered directly to your door every month. Looking like a piece of near future technology, the gun metal grey aluminum case is a prism of hyper truncated triangles, or in layman's terms “a six sided prism with a slight triangular look.
