Email3: The testing continues… The Crucial nvme drives did not work out as there was not enough clearance in the case. In the future it may be great to redesign the Geekworm X1011-C1 PCIe Metal Case for Raspberry Pi 5 to add at least 1cm of depth to permit better air flow for the nvme’s and clearance for the heatsinks… | '''Email3:''' The testing continues… The Crucial nvme drives did not work out as there was not enough clearance in the case.

I am finding the original WD Black nvme drives are failing at an alarming rate. The SanDisk warranty replacement is good but takes time (3-4 weeks). | I am finding the original WD Black nvme drives are failing at an alarming rate.

This is a much better result compared with the 5a power supply.. I will update you in a week or so to let you know if anything comes up.. At this point, I would say that this 10a power supply is better for a fully populated X1011 with larger nvme drives.. | This is a much better result compared with the 5a power supply..

I purchased the Geekworm X1011 5V PCIe to Four M.2 NVMe SSD Board for Raspberry Pi 5. I installed 4 WD 4Tb NVME drives. Things ran for a bit.. (OMV7-Bookworm).. As the Raid5 set was cleaning.. OMV eventually ended by dumping all four drives.. I wonder if the 5 amp power supply is not enough.. (I am using the Geekworm GaN PD 27W 5.1V 5A Power Supply) | I purchased the Geekworm X1011 5V PCIe to Four M.2 NVMe SSD Board for Raspberry Pi 5. I installed 4 WD 4Tb NVME drives.

I found a 5V 8A Power Adapter, 100-240V AC to DC Power Supply transformer on amazon.ca.. Unfortunately they do not document the configuration of the DC Jack (ASIN-809MQNBX8H, Manufacturer reference - Diocheya6gr98w1h489 Country - China). Product detail describes the connector type as default... | I found a 5V 8A Power Adapter, 100-240V AC to DC Power Supply transformer on amazon.ca..
