The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 IO Board exposes an x1 PCI Express Gen 2.0 slot. What can you do with the slot? And are there any tips or tricks to make sure you don’t accidentally cook a PCIe card—or the Pi? See all the cards I am testing:...

The CM4 goes beyond 1 Gigabit with WiFi 6. But can it do 2.5 Gbps Ethernet? I’ll explore that question using the Rosewill RC20001 PCIe card, and test how fast it can go on my new baby 10 Gbps home network! Support me on Patreon:...

The Raspberry Pi has built in 802.11ac WiFi. But it’s not that fast. Let’s see what we can do about that! I tried getting both an ASUS AC51 and Intel AX200 PCI express card working on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4. How did that work out? Check out this...

I’ve been following these projects for a few weeks, and I wanted to share them with you. I know it’s still hard to get your hands on the official Compute Module IO Board, but maybe you won’t have to, if you’re able to get your hands on one of...

I built the fastest (to my knowledge) native SATA RAID array on a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4, and set it up as a NAS server, testing out hard drives and SSDs, and different RAID setups like RAID 0, 1, and 10. I discuss the advantages of different RAID levels, how...
