Hi all !
I'm proud to present you my LIBREELEC Kodi case !
1 Chieftec case with working leds for HDD and power and working power button
1 RF remote Gyration gyr3101eu
1 Raspberry PI4
1 HDD 4To 2.5" + SATA to USB 3.0 adapter
1 Fan for HDD
1 Fan for CPU
1 Heat sink for CPU
1 Custom I/O shield (back panel)
Cables for USB-C, USB2.0 Network and HDMI for the rear panel
And a lot of time to make it hahaha !
THANK YOU VERY MUCH LIBREELEC TEAM !!!
I have the same project in mind
I wanna build a big htpc with my Rock Pi 4b which is going to have at least 4 hdds. I do know that I will have to use an external PSU which is fine. I might use a PC PSU but first I have to check if I wlll be able to manage the power of the PSU using the gpio of my sbc.
Hi, any tutorial or a shopping cart? I´m thinking to do something like your project.
Nice, thanks for sharing.
Been making htpc's for over a decade and it's always fun to see what people do to customise their setups.
Im using the same case but with a J3160 motherboard, 60GB SSD, 8GB RAM, OSMC Remote, a slow 80 mm fan and LibreELEC.
Hi, any tutorial or a shopping cart? I´m thinking to do something like your project.
You can find all items in Amazon,
- The case is HTPC format, there is plenty of it. (don't forget to make a drawing with all dimensions (H x W x D)
- Cables are mal/femal small lenght cables for USB3.0, USB2.0, USB-C, HDMI, RJ45
- Fans are 5cm x 5cm x 1cm or 4cm x 4cm x 1cm in 5 Volt
- HDD is 2.5" + sata to USB3.0 adapter like Inateck Adapter USB3.0 to SATA (with power supply included in option)
- Micro SD card SDXC
- RF remote plugged to USB2.0
- Some 330ohm resistors and mal/femal wires for case leds and
- Soldering iron, some screws from old computer, pin headers
- Efforts and times to build
No tutorial as it is quite easy.
The only difficult part is to screw RPI4 in the case and to cut and drill a metal plate for the rear side and for the bottom side.
Don't forget to make drawing before building, dimensions are very important if you want to include RPI4 with 1 or 2 HDDs inside the case
And a drawing for the GPIO for fans and leds and power button.
