Hi All,
Trying out my version 1.1 sata hat and having a lot of fun with it, got it set up with 4 Crutial M4 SSDs which it seems to be able to handle pretty well. The only issue is that with the “high power” chargers i bought in preparation, including one with QC and PD, i am seeing that the power light on the Pi flickers and goes out alot of the time and when i check i can see it is throwing undervoltage warnings. at the moment i have found running a second usb c to deliver power to the pi (in addition to the usb c powering the hat) works around this issue but means i cant run it with the case screwed on (without drilling a new hole). i also see some issues when i start up the pi with just the hat supply plugged in where it struggles to recognise the disks until the pi supply is attached and the service is restarted.
Has anyone got any tried and tested charger suggestions that can do the whole thing with just the hat input? bonus points for UK amazon links!
