'''Summary & Recommendations'''
Power Supply Requirements:
* 5V 5A (Standard): Insufficient for the X1011 when fully populated with 4 NVMe SSDs, especially during power-intensive operations like RAID5 rebuilding/cleaning. This may lead to drive disconnections or system instability.
* 5V 10A (Recommended): The Geekworm PSU50 (5V 10A) is highly recommended for configurations using 4TB or high-performance drives to ensure stable voltage and prevent data loss.
Thermal Considerations:
* High-capacity NVMe drives (e.g., WD Black series) generate significant heat. It is critical to ensure adequate airflow.
* Using an external cooling fan can maintain drive temperatures around 22°C - 29°C, significantly extending hardware lifespan.
Hardware Compatibility:
* Users should verify the physical clearance of NVMe heatsinks within the X1011-C1 metal case. Some high-profile drives or heatsinks may require additional case depth for optimal fit and airflow.
