Seems like a good price for this (usually around $100), cheaper than a Pi 4

Now on Back Order (Eta August)

Mod note: The website allows item to be ordered for backorder at the price of $57.48 + GST when logged out. However, users report that their orders have been cancelled with the reason from the seller stating that the clearance stock has already been exhausted. This deal is therefore marked as expired.

      yep, something like the dell wyse 5070 for $55 shipped on ebay is the way to go

    I’ve found this deal tempting, however, I know I won’t use it for anything.
    I bought an old optiplex from eBay, with 8gb and 7th fen proc
    Upgraded another 8gb for $20, added 2 additional network cards , installed proxmox to run:

    Pfsense
    Truenas
    Homeassistant
    Homebridge
    Scripted
    2 containers for transmission
    2 containers for VPN clients (serving the 2 transmission containers above)

    In progress:
    NVR- either Blueiris or frigit to boost my security cameras performance using Coral
    VPN server
    Pi hole
    … pls comment if you know some more VM/CT that are good for home use

    And not sure what more in the future, all in a single machine, with scheduled backup on truenas within, and weekly backups to OneDrive via truenas.

    The downside is the power draw, but it’s serving many purposes with one 24/7 machine.

    • desync on 09/05/2024 - 17:34

      nothing really heavy there, you could probably get away with a 10w TDP gemini lake wyse 5070 for $55

      • TaurusHead on 10/05/2024 - 11:10

        on the contrary my i5 6th laptop with 16GB RAM is pissing when I installed Truenas in Proxmox, always hit 99% CPU utilisation and struggles to cope up.

        • tryingtohelp on 10/05/2024 - 12:21

          Same thing happened, and it crashed and shut down Pfsense, and the house started to complain for having no internet. Chucking extra 16gb and now no issues at all.

        • TaurusHead on 10/05/2024 - 12:39

          I think the the extra stick doesn't help here as it's the CPU that's being the bottleneck

      • tryingtohelp on 10/05/2024 - 12:22

        My machine has 3 HDs installed, so your advice will not fit :(

  • BrettSh on 09/05/2024 - 10:40

    Thanks.

  • sqheaven on 09/05/2024 - 10:48

    Anyone doing audio stuff with raspberry pi?

    • m9 on 09/05/2024 - 13:41

      I did Volumio on a Raspberry Pi B+ yonks ago

      • sqheaven on 09/05/2024 - 14:23

        I don't think it's required anymore, my pc has never skipped a beat streaming music from Tidal, etc

        I think if you have a digital music on a server, maybe then?

        • m9 on 09/05/2024 - 14:28

          Correct. Used it for my FLAC collection previously.

          • sqheaven on 09/05/2024 - 14:31

            @m9: Yeah I have tons of digital music, now I send it directly to the streamer. Don't have what to use RPi for lol Haven't bought any deals around here.. Maybe install a Linux distro for practice, because I am a Windows guy.

  • arst on 09/05/2024 - 14:39

    Should I get it for my HAOS..I already have a laptop with i5-5200U that runs HAOS well.. Seems to get this will need to buy others stuff such as SSD..

    Just got a very strangely worded cancellation email:

    Please be informed that since we were running fire sale/ stock clearance offer and as per the t & c the discounted price was applicable only for AU warehouse stock.

    Since AU stock is already exhausted for few of the ordered items we will no longer be able to sell at discounted price.

    Hence the one line from the order is cancelled from our end.

    Um what? Can you rewrite that in English please?

    • Schrodinger on 09/05/2024 - 16:04

      Same.
      Anyone else got cancellation mails?

      • truongster on 09/05/2024 - 19:43

        I did

      • ProbablyNotaBot on 10/05/2024 - 09:37

      But I also bought the fan/heatsink so I decided to cancel the order proactively in case they send only the cooler over (where I obviously don't need it alone). When I made my order the website still shows in stock. So obviously someone fed it up that night.

    Dear Customer,

    Please advise on the below I see all the items customer has selected is with 02 code and the price is higher compared to code with out 02.

    In this case do I have to release the order as it is or change the codes

    Please be informed that since we were running fire sale/ stock clearance offer and as per the t & c the discounted price was applicable only for AU warehouse stock.

    Weirdly written cancellation.

  • chingy213 on 09/05/2024 - 17:05

    i bought a pi4 1 year ago for 115 from the same site….

  • Quarter Pounder on 09/05/2024 - 18:34

    I cancelled mine, no use for it and id need to invest in a case, sd card and power supply

  • denserham on 09/05/2024 - 20:53

    Apparently mine is getting delivered tomorrow, I only bought it because the price makes me nostalgic for when $60 was the normal price of a raspberry pi.

  • Matt86 on 10/05/2024 - 10:12

    I know it's very overkill but purchased this for a Pihole.

    I currently have pios in a VM on my NAS - but it's slow since it's HDD based and if there's a power outage it takes about 15 minutes to recover.

    Any suggestions on PSU for these? I'm thinking the official 27w one is probably the better option here.

    As for a case I was thinking a passive aluminum case off of Aliexpress - any suggestions?

    SD card - was going to go with a Samsung Evo

  • FrontBottom on 10/05/2024 - 12:05

    That was quick - just arrived …

    • Bohlen on 10/05/2024 - 14:30

      Mine too (the pi 5), says it was express posted, from Sydney warehouse.

      While the extra case and psu I added are coming separately, from UK warehouse!

  • Mooncakes on 10/05/2024 - 12:56

    Weird mine hasn't been shipped yet.. no cancel emails or charged card either.

    Edit: I lied about the being charged part, just checked again was charged within the last hour lol and it's now shipped

    • skooter on 10/05/2024 - 15:15

      same here - no charge, no shipping, no cancellation.. i ordered about 9.30pm on Wednesday night

      hope i manage to get one.. been hanging out for a reasonable price drop for a while now

      • Mooncakes on 10/05/2024 - 18:17

        Yeah mine ended up being shipped so don't lose hope haha

      • skooter on 15/05/2024 - 10:04

        aaand cancelled

  • quebec on 11/05/2024 - 10:59

    Paid on 8th when deal went live, money debited straightaway but status still shows pending!

  • AliG on 11/05/2024 - 11:29

    Hey guys
    Has anyone been able to cancel their order by emailing them?

    • Gav on 11/05/2024 - 16:33

      There's a request cancellation option online, when you view the order from memory. It worked for me - cancelled same day (but not instant, they manually check & do it).

      • AliG on 12/05/2024 - 11:05

        Thanks gav, do you need an account for that?
        I checked out as a guest

        • Gav on 12/05/2024 - 12:01

          Ahh yes I'd assume you'd need an account. Not sure how to do as a guest, sorry… maybe order email has something.

  • quebec on 13/05/2024 - 12:51

  • RichardZed on 15/05/2024 - 10:10

    Received email from element14 ,they will cancel my order at the low price offered here to buy at the new NEW HIGH price!. I'm a regular customer of theirs and have probably bought every Raspberry Pi ever available from them.

    • xmagic on 15/05/2024 - 10:13

      But I searched around there's no HIGH PRICE for 4GB model, only 8GB model which is IMO meaningless…

      • shrimpee on 15/05/2024 - 10:36
        +1

        Same, can't find the new price. They shipped the PSU but cancelled the Pi…

        • xmagic on 15/05/2024 - 11:05
          +1

          Maybe you should force them cancel and refund you the whole order (if you don’t need the PSU alone)

          Speaking of the 5V5A PSU… I’m doing PoE so never mind…

          • shrimpee on 15/05/2024 - 11:08
            +1

            @xmagic: Contacted them and was told there were issues with shipping the Pi from Europe and hence taken off their website. They have agreed to free returns and refund of the PSU. Just a hassle and now need to wait for the next good deal to pop up for it.

            • xmagic on 15/05/2024 - 11:18

              @shrimpee: I’d rather wait whatever it can be than having the order cancelled. But I guess cancel instead of fulfilling is easier on their side.

  • Azif on 15/05/2024 - 10:44

    Any project recommendations? Already have a usff home server and a pi running pihole separately

  • RichardZed on 15/05/2024 - 11:07
