Introducing our latest desktop kit for Raspberry Pi 4! This upgraded version offers a new assembly method, connecting each side panel with frames for simpler setup. The kit comfortably accommodates up to 4 Raspberry Pi boards, 4 2.5” SSDs, and an ethernet switch. With 4 reserved SD card slots, you can easily access them from the front using an extension board (not included). Please note, assembly is required but straightforward.

Convenience is key with our design featuring independent baseplates secured by thumbscrews, allowing for quick and easy maintenance. Made of durable full metal with a black powder coat finish, this kit is built to last with smooth, rounded edges.

Dual 8cm 5V cooling fans ensure efficient and quiet heat dissipation, perfect for keeping your setup cool. Ideal for building Pi Arrays, Pi NAS, Pi LAN labs, or any other project that needs organized management of multiple Pis. For enhanced cooling when using a PoE hat, check out our fan adapter (ASIN: B09TP9HT3C). Note: The included fan does not support speed and temperature control.
