==FAQ==
Q1: Don't detect HDD/SDD?
* This is a complicated question, but we can check it from these points. Please refer to [[How to check the X820|How to check the X825]]
The power supply is very important to X825, some low quality power supply will damage your board or not recognize the HDD/SDD, so it is strongly recommend to use this [https://geekworm.com/products/dc-5v-4a-power-adapter-with-eu-us-plug-for-x820-x800-x4000-x6000-expansion-board CE/UL/FCC/GS certificate DC 5V 4A Power Supply].


Q2: Do i need an external power source supplying for x825 board?
* Yes, here is the specification: 5V and 4A with a 5.5mm barrel connector​, and do not power your Raspberry Pi via the Pi's 40-pin header and type-C socket at the same time.


Q3: Does the X825 support USB boot?
* Please refer to [[Does the X825/X855 support USB boot]]


Q4: Why X825 can not recognize the HDD when doing big data transfer?
* This situation do not related with the hardware, please try to check and update the firmare. We have test continuous copy of data that has exceeded 15GB in windows.


Q5: What is the pinout for the PWR Switch?
* Please refer to here: [[PH2.0 Conector Specification]]
