Argon EON Review: Turns Raspberry Pi Into a NAS



Argon Forty loves releasing cases with names that have permutations of the word “ONE.” So far we’ve had the Argon ONE (and M.2), NEO and now we have the EON. But rather than another wedge shaped Raspberry Pi case bound for our desktop, the EON is bound for our living room, office or small business where it helps turn your Pi into a network-attached storage drive (NAS).
The $150 Argon EON, which goes on sale in mid March 2022, is a delightfully designed Raspberry Pi 4 case that has better aesthetics than many of the best Raspberry Pi Cases. Made from space-grade aluminum, this cyberpunk influenced aesthetic is right at home in our lives. Inside we can store up to four 2.5 inch drives, or two 3.5 inch drives, and running the show is our favorite single board computer, the Raspberry Pi 4.
The Argon EON kickstarter was successfully funded in September 2021, with backers receiving their units in early 2022. Argon Forty raised HK$ 1,177,230 (approximately $150,609) from over one thousand backers. Ahead of the retail release we secured an Argon EON for review and put it through its paces during a week of tests and typical work scenarios.
