==OverviewForeword==NASPI Click [[GEEKWORM NAS Family]] to know more.===Update History==='''On April 28th 2022, NASPi is a NUCupdated to NASPi V2.0(New add Auto Power On function, and only the X-C1 adapter shield was upgraded from V1.3 to V2.0 version)''' <span style NAS storage solution based ="color:red;>Note: Due to the different arrival times of products on each platform, please refer to the latest Raspberry Pi 4platform information for the purchased version. It supports 2.5-inch sata HDD</SSD.

According to our test 2.4G WIFI is usable. But 5GHz WIFI networks will be more stable. So strongly recommend to use 5GHz WIFI networks or Ethernet.

A: As We recommend that you use our test20W 5V 4A Type-C power adapter [[USB C PSU]], 2.4G WIFI AP was usable. But different Raspberry Pi individuals have different degrees of WIFI interference. As well as aluminum alloy case will interfere with pi 4’s WIFI to a certain extent. So and we also sell it is strongly recommend to use Ethernet or 5G AP. You can refer to video test of 5G WIFI AP: https://youtu.be/LKJVIBQFYXsin our Geekworm Amazon store
<span class="tb_red ">Warning about power supply:</span>
# Don't use that adjustable voltage power supply.

Does the PWM cooling fan running or not?</summary>A. 1. The fan is very silent, and it is not easy to hear the sound of the fan;<br>2. The fan is a PWM fan which dynamically adjusts the speed according to the temperature of the CPU. If the temperature of the CPU is low, the speed of the fan is extremely low, and it is not easy to hear the sound of the fan;<br>3. Only when the CPU temperature reaches 65 degrees or more, the fan will run at full speed, and you may be able to hear the sound of the fan;<br>4. The fan is controlled by the PWM signal. The fan will only run after the ‘python /home/pi/x-c1/fan.py&amp;’ command runs successfully; you can run the following command to check whether the fan is running; sudo jobs</details> <details><summary>Q. What is the read/write performance when used as a NAS?</summary>A. The read and write performance is determined by the speed of the Raspberry Pi’s USB 3 bus and SSD. It should be noted that the Raspberry Pi’s USB3 bandwidth is only 3Gbps. Normally, the R/W speed is about 300MB/S.</details> <details><summary>Q. Does the NASPi support PoE?</summary>A. According to the customer feedback(based on 2021-05-07-raspios-buster-arm64-lite), the NASPi is OK to use with PoE splitter, but make sure to use high quality PoE splitter, or the power maybe not enough to power the NASPi kit.</details> <details><summary>Q.
