Fantastic little case that fits my Raspberry pi 8GB and a 240GB Western Digital SATA M.2 SSD. I cannot give it 5 stars because you have to open it up, disturbing the fitment of the Heatsink thermal pads. It is a shame it uses a USB 3.0 port to run the SSD however this is a necessary evil due to the design of the Raspberry Pi, any solution you find to use an SSD with the Pi seems to use a USB 3 Port so it's no fault of Argon. My workaround was to purchase a uGreen 4 Port USB 3.0 Hub and a Power Supply to allow me to connect my Conbee II and Aeotec Z-Stick 7 at the same time over USB 3.0. Be careful what USB Hub you get though as I tried a few that didn't work before I was advised to get this one as it doesn't feed power back to the Pi from what I understood. I hope this helps.

fantastic bombastic case - so silent and the passive cooling is amazing - very rarely fan goes ON

The case is of very good quality, although the plastic part at the bottom does not close tightly. Also, the software required for IR and fan control is only available for Rasbpian/Debian/Ubuntu, so if you use a different distro you will require to manually adapt the scripts. Apart from that, this case is superb.

Excellent case for looks and cooling. Easy access to the GPIO pins. Only criticism is that it does not stack - but I do not require that. Well packaged and really prompt delivery (in this instance faster than Amazon prime). Thank you.

I may have a faulty one, but it looks like the pi shop, by returns will sort it, using post office 48 returns

The case is of very high quality and was very easy to assemble. Would highly recommend, in fact I have now purchased 2 of these.

These cases are amazing, taking the temperature of an idling pi4 down from 54 deg, when in a standard case with cover off, to 40 deg.
