The Argon NEO 5 M.2 NVMe PCIe case is designed for the Raspberry Pi 5 and supports M.2 NVMe 2280 drives. It combines active and passive cooling, with a 30 mm PWM blower fan, an NVMe drive heatsink, and cooling fins. It provides access to the GPIO, UART, MIPI, PCIe, USB Type-A, USB Type-C, and Ethernet ports, as well as the SD card and RTC battery slots.
No problem, as long as it's within 14 days. We'll come pick it up or you can choose the Skroutz Point that suits you, completely free for up to 2 times per year, and we'll refund your money. Get Skroutz Plus to enjoy unlimited free returns.

Users rate the enclosure positively, mainly for its NVMe M.2 support and effective cooling. They also mention easy assembly and a convenient power button. However, accessing the SD card is difficult, and some users criticize the board’s support and the SSD cooling.
Good idea but poor implementation:
1) no access to sd card slot.
2) raspberry pi board inside of case fixed on 2 screws on one side of the board and thermo sticker of cpu in the middle of the board. another side of the board just fly in the air without any support.
3) button? Better don't touch it. Too big clearance and too thin pushing stick. It easy can skew, miss the button on board and jam there
4) ssd radiator almost useless. It small and screwed to bottom part of case which made of plastic. Thus it isolated from middle part which metal and no any flow of air expected here.
5) screw that intended to keep bottom and middle parts of case together can hold only one side of case, fortunately it's side which hold the board. other side have blind holes for screw and screw is too long to pull bottom and middle parts tight. fortunately all screws have same thread and it possible to exchange screws with upper part.
At the end of day i'll change screws add washer or pieces of eraser to fix board in case and I not going to have high disk load. so it will fit my needs. but for 47 euro I expect more.

I have been using this particular case for a few months now. Easy assembly if you follow the instructions.
Inside, there is a pi5 8gb and a lexar nvme m.2, and the pi usually runs at 10% idle with what I have running. At full load, it reaches 100% regarding its processor.
Based on this, I am completely satisfied with the cooling the case provides. In normal operation, it is warm to the touch, but you can comfortably hold it in your hand. At full load, I haven't touched it, to be honest. However, as long as I've been using it (currently, it's on a shelf in my office), I've only heard the fan working when I restart the pi, and that's for 1-2 seconds. This means the passive cooling of the case is excellent for normal operation with occasional full loads.
Δουλεύω το συγκεκριμένο κουτί εδώ και κάτι μήνες. Εύκολη συναρμολόγηση, αν ακολουθήσεις τις οδηγίες.
Στα σωθικά του υπάρχει ένα pi5 8gb κι ένας lexar nvme m.2, και το pi δουλεύει συνήθως στο 10% idle με αυτά που τρέχω. Σε full load πιάνει και 100%, όσον αφορά τον επεξεργαστή του.
Με βάση αυτά, είμαι απόλυτα ικανοποιημένος από την ψύξη που παρέχει το κουτί. Σε κανονική λειτουργία, είναι ζεστό στην αφή, αλλά το κρατάς άνετα στο χέρι σου. Σε full load δεν το έχω ακουμπήσει, είναι η αλήθεια. Παρόλα αυτά, όσο καιρό το δουλεύω (προς το παρόν βρίσκεται σε ένα ράφι του γραφείου μου), το ανεμιστηράκι το έχω ακούσει να δουλεύει μόνο όταν κάνω επανεκκίνηση το pi, κι αυτό για 1-2 δευτερόλεπτα. Αυτό σημαίνει πως η παθητική ψύξη του κουτιού είναι άριστη για κανονική λειτουργία με στιγμιαία full loads.
