PRODUCT DETAILS

Extension Board


› HARDWARE OVERVIEW
  • The X1008 supports simultaneous connection of a 3.5-inch SATA HDD and a 2.5-inch HDD/SSD, offering a versatile mix of high-capacity (e.g., 16TB 3.5” HDD) and faster-access (e.g., 1TB 2.5” SSD) storage. This is perfect for custom projects like a hybrid NAS, media server, or data logging system needing both mass storage and quick retrieval.
  • It uses the Pi 5’s PCIe 2.0 x1 interface (5 Gbps max), delivering up to ~430 MB/s for SSDs and ~120 MB/s for HDDs (per tests with Samsung EVO 750 SSD and Seagate Barracuda). While not NVMe-fast, it’s efficient for SATA drives and beats USB 3.0’s shared bandwidth for multi-drive setups—great for custom platforms handling parallel data streams.
  • With a 12V DC jack and efficient DC/DC converters, it powers both the Pi 5 and drives (via pogo pins), handling ~3A for the combo (more with larger HDDs). This single-source power simplifies custom builds—think portable media hubs or off-grid projects—without juggling multiple adapters.
  • Mounted under the Pi 5, it preserves GPIO access for additional HATs and supports HAT+ STANDBY mode (auto-off when the Pi shuts down). For custom projects needing stacked functionality (e.g., sensors plus storage), this integration is a big win.
  • It shines in DIY scenarios—say, a retro gaming rig with ROMs on an SSD and save states on an HDD, or a data collection system pairing fast SSD recording with bulk HDD archiving.



› APPLICATIONS
This extension board is particularly well-suited for use in IoT projects, home media servers, and network-attached storage (NAS) systems where additional storage is required. Its capability to connect both 2.5" and 3.5" SATA drives offers flexibility in choosing storage solutions based on speed, capacity, and budget. For robotics and AI projects, the X1008 can be used to store large datasets, such as images and videos for machine learning model training. Enthusiasts can customize their setups by incorporating multiple X1008 boards to scale their storage capacity or by integrating it into custom Raspberry Pi cases designed for server or multimedia applications.
