Compact Single Board Computer for Personal Cloud NAS and 4K Media Server

ZimaBoard: The World's First Hackable Single Board Server

ZimaBoard is a low-cost, single-board server exclusively designed for makers, DIYers, and geeks. Equipped with an Intel Celeron N3450 Quad Core processor operating at 1.1GHz to 2.2GHz, it offers the expandability of an x86 single-board computer (SBC) combined with the power of a micro server, making it the perfect solution for edge intelligence and smart home projects.

At the heart of ZimaBoard's design is its focus on expandability. The board features an onboard PCIe x4 interface, which serves as the primary physical interface catering to a variety of user needs. With a wide range of PCIe accessories available on the market, you can easily extend your ZimaBoard setup with 2.5Gbe, NVMe NGFF SSD, WiFi dongles, XMOS/DAC modules, and much more.

ZimaBoard's versatility allows you to transform it into a personal NAS, 4K streaming server, VPN router, and IoT gateway. In just 5 minutes, you can set up a 4TB personal cloud without any monthly fees. Secure your digital footprint by configuring a VPN, fine-tune your network with OpenWrt, build a 4K media server with Plex, and share and collaborate on files with team members in a protected environment.

Complementing its hardware capabilities, ZimaBoard comes pre-installed with CasaOS, a simple and elegant home cloud system built around the Docker ecosystem. CasaOS changes the way families view modern living, providing features like photo and video storage, smart home device management, and encrypted communications, all in a one-stop, secure home cloud solution.

Beyond CasaOS, ZimaBoard is also compatible with a range of operating systems, including Linux (default), Windows, OpenWrt, Android, and LibreELEC, allowing you to customize your setup to your specific needs.

The ZimaBoard package includes the ZimaBoard 832, a SATA cable, and a 12V/3A power adapter. If you have any questions or concerns, the ZimaBoard team is always ready to listen and assist you. Simply contact them through the official ZimaBoard website or by clicking the "ZimaBoard" link.

The idea behind ZimaBoard stems from a robot character featured in the "Love Death and Robots" episode. For the team, this character represents a self-speaking symbol of creation, art, power, life, death, and the emergence of a new species - a fitting inspiration for a versatile and hackable single-board server.

In conclusion, ZimaBoard is the world's first hackable x86 single-board server, designed to empower makers, DIYers, and geeks with its expansive capabilities and customization potential. Whether you're looking to build a personal cloud, stream 4K content, set up a secure VPN, or develop innovative smart home projects, ZimaBoard offers the perfect combination of power, flexibility, and affordability.
