X873 V1.2
X873 V1.2

Overview

This is new updated version from X872.

Some changes:

  • We removed the DC JACK power socket of X873, X873 is powered via USB 3.0 connector.
  • We use shorter copper spacer to connect Raspberry Pi 4 and X873 V1.2, which reduces the height of the entire product, so the matching metal case X857-C3 is shoter 3mm than X857-C1;
  • We have solved the EMC interference issue between Raspberry Pi 4 and USB3.0 device ON X873 V1.2.
  • 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.

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

Matching Metal Case

We use shorter copper spacer to connect Raspberry Pi 4 and X873 V1.2, 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 X872 and X873 V1.2 are different. X872 should use X857-C1 Case, but X873 V1.2 use X857-C3 Case.

Hi, I understood this model was discontinued. Is there a replacement or equivalent available?

Hi,

There is no replacement or equivalent available for NVMe SSD. If you use M.2 NGFF SSD or mSATA SSD, you can use X862 or X857 board

Hello,

Please use another brand of SSD to test it.

Not recommend to use SAMSUNG SSD, as there will be BIG EMC interference.

Hello,Sorry, does not support turning off the led lights. you can cover it with dark tape if you think it is too bright.

Всё отлично работает с Raspberry Pi 4 8Gb / A2000 NVMe PCIe SSD 250 Gb, подскажите как отключить синий светодиод на плате, очень яркий свет излучает. Заранее благодарен.

Hello,sorry that the blue LED is uncontrollable, if you mind it, you can use tape to cover it.

I got a X873 but its not working properly on my Pi4b 8gb. Raspbian does not detect my SSD but if I connect the x873 directly to my PC using USB A male-male, the ssd shows up. When i plug in the USB bridge to my Pi4b, all other USB ports will stop working. Need some guide please.
