Raspberry Pi 5 holder

Raspberry Pi 5 holder

A few weeks ago I have updated my Magic Mirror central smart home display from an Raspberry Pi 4 to an Raspberry Pi 5 and needed a new holder to mount it to, because the new RP5 uses an M.2 NVMe SSD drive now and does not fit in the old case anymore.

Because the RP5 will be hidden behind the Magic Mirror display and therefore this holder just needs to hold the device proper in place and can use all the air around to keep it as cool as possible.

Therefore the holder is as simple as possible and provides a 5mm gap under the RP5 board to let it breathe more air. The holder itself was screwed to the outer wooden frame of the Magic Mirror.

The following parts were used for the setup and are held pretty good in place with the holder:

• Raspberry Pi 5 8 GB
• Raspberry Pi 5 USB-C power supply 27W
• GeeekPi N04 M.2 M-Key NVMe SSD Shield für Raspberry Pi 5, M.2 2280
• Raspberry Pi Active Cooler for Raspberry Pi 5

Printing instructions:

• 0.3 draft profile
• No supports needed
• No brim needed
• Textured sheet used

Happy printing =)
