So much fun with Zimaboard2
Since receiving the new Zimaboard2 I have done so much much, Iโve installed many Linux Distros and reinstalled ZimaOS. The PCI have been great, Iโve docked a GPU to play with AI models. Exploring docker containers, have been helpful to decide which application to adopt in my homelab. Thank you, IceWhale Team to make this happen.
ZIMA board w/NVME PCIE Card and NAS Rack
I really enjoyed putting together all the bits and pieces for this project. The only update I would suggest is to place assembly instructions in accessories like cooling fan and NAS rack. Could be old school like paper docs or modern like a QR code that links to a specific doc.
Amazing device!
I had a Zimaboard 1 that I used to create a NAS leveraging 2 hard drives giving me 14TB of storage. I use plex to stream movies directly from the NAS. I recently got the zimaboard 2. I copied the same setup as my zimaboard 1. I am amazed as now I find streaming to be slot faster. I also like the UI of zimaos. Iโm able to troubleshoot issues through my iPhone now!
I highly recommend the product as well as the vendor!
An excellent sequel to one of the most user-friendly hackable SBCs in the market
A brilliant follow up to the original ZimaBoard that provides a much more modern (& powerful) CPU with an upgraded PCIe slot (2.0 to 3.0), that opens up a lot more home-lab opportunities.
Able to run VMs, Backup, Plex & Immich services much faster and more efficiently when compared to the previous gen; and all of this in a similar small & portable footprint.
Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get in to the world of Home Lab setups, at a very affordable price point.
Zimaboard 2 8gb with pfsense 2.8.1
I have installed pfSense 2.8.1 on my ZimaBoard 2 with 8โฏGB of RAM and Iโm delighted with its performance and operation.
Powerful, and Exceptionally Well-Built
The Zimaboard 2 has genuinely impressed me. From the moment I unboxed it, the build quality stood out, solid, well-designed, and clearly engineered with longevity in mind. The setup process was surprisingly smooth, making it easy to get everything up and running without any complications.
Highly recommended.
Hardware is nice; OS needs work
My ZimaCube is very ell engineered and the hardware easy to configure. Zima OS needs work, but the developers are working on this diligently. Support so far has been fantastic. Overall quite satisfied and canโt wait to see what the future holds.
A robust yet simple NAS solution
There are only two purchases I have made that make me happy every day, one is my LG ultrawide display, and the other is the ZimaBlade, what a beautiful thing, with Proxmox I have AdGuard, Ngix Proxy Manager, Jellyfin with hardware acceleration, Docker, Nextcloud AIO, Immich, of course a Samba share for the NAS, and two web services, one with node and the other with Apache+PHP, I cannot ask for more.
Zimablade 3760
I took a while to write this review until after I stress tested and I have to say that I'm impressed. Not only does it make for an excellent 2bay nas but also runs everything I wanted perfectly through proxmox, to be fair this isn't written out of the box though I added a ripjaws and also a samsung ssd through pcie. The casaos installed on emmc I flashed ubuntu to for when I want to use the pcie slot for other things, such as to hook up coral for tokenized machine learning, etc. I can honestly say that I prefer my Zimablade over my rpi5 8gb. This is definitely a great product that more people should add to their arsenal.
Zima Blade Little yet Powerful
Maybe I am not digital natives but I live with PC's since 12 years old in 1984 when IBM PC clone come to my home. Many years have passed and many operating system I've tried. For me Zima blade and Casaos was a quantum leap for home PC enthusiast and server lab machine to make me stay curious and relevant for this era.
ZimaTastic!
My ZimaBoard has replaced my home built ESX server that gave up the ghost after 10 years of constant running. Now, instead of running ESX, I have one ZimaBoard running CasaOS running my Plex and download dockers, along with Twingate for remote access ZTNA. It runs faster and uses a fraction of the power, without being a dust sucker. I love this little thing. I think a future purchase will be a ZimaCube so I can also replace my QNAP for storage. Very cool. Well done, team! Love your work!
Mostly what I wanted - laid bare my incompetence
I got interested in this product as a home server option that was accessible to someone who's midway between a layperson and a proper tech/IT enthusiast. It seemed as though many tasks that are often annoying or tedious would be made simpler or unnecessary with CasaOS on the ZimaBoard.
For the most part that's true, and there are many aspects of this product that worked beautifully out of the box in my case - but as this kind of technology improves, I'm personally only learning more and more how inept I am at interacting with it...
Fantastic value!
Love this deviceโฆ. I am a novice at Linux and Docker but had this working in no time. Great device to learn on. Made a backup of os and was able to experiment and learn and reinstall os if I wanted to start over clean. Now setup as my media server with Channels DVR as a customer install. Such a great setup. Super happy with the hardware and support.
