X857 V2.0 with Acrylic Plate and Embedded Heatsink

X857 V2.0 with Acrylic Plate

Overview

This is new updated X857 V2.0 version from X857 V1.2.

Some changes:

We removed the DC JACK power socket of X857 V2.0, X857 V2.0 is powered via USB 3.0 connector.
We use shorter copper spacer to connect Raspberry Pi 4 and X857 V2.0, which reduces the height of the entire product, so the matching metal case X857-C3 is shoter 3mm than X857-C1;
After our test, X857 V2.0 can connect to 2.4G wifi in seconds without the metal case. However, if X857 work with a metal case or external USB 3.0 devices such as a mouse or keyboard, you may still need to use Ethernet or 5G AP.
But if you use a metal shell like X857-C3, then you can only use 5.8G wifi AP, 2.4G wifi will not be available(be shielded by metal case);
As a Raspberry pi NAS device, we advised that you use ethernet network to replace wifi, this will be more stable and reliable.
X857 V1.2 version supports TRIM but not UASP, V2.0 version supports UASP but not TRIM.
We found that the stability of wifi is related to the brand of SSD.

How to select your power adapter

If you have a good quality usb type c power adapter, you can also use a TYPE C power adapter to supply power through X735 type c, otherwise we suggest you choose our power adapter with DC 5525 JACK

Packing List

1 x X857 V2.0 mSATA SSD shield
1 x USB3.1 jumper
6 x Screw M2.5 *6mm
4 x Spacer M/F M2.5 *7+6mm
4 x Spacer F/F M2.5 *9.5mm

Matching Metal Case

We use shorter copper spacer to connect Raspberry Pi 4 and X857 V2.0, which reduces the height of the entire product, so the matching metal case X857-C3 is shoter 3mm than X857-C1;

Please refer to X857-C3.

Note: The case of X857 V1.2 and X862 V2.0 are different. X857 V1.2 should use X857-C1 Case, but X857 V2.0 use X857-C3 Case.
