  1. Hi all, I got my helios4 sometimes in 2019 and it was one of the best purchases I ever made. It has served and was solid as a rock. Unfortunately all that ended couple of days ago when I noticed the Helios was not powering up properly, think it was the power supply not connected well (because I just recently changed the location) I removed and fitted the PSU a couple of times, I could see the led light come on but still it would not boot properly. By the time I found out what the real problem is things had gone worse, the reason for the incomplete boot was the SD card has been removed. Unfortunately, it seems my constant removing and refitting the PSU to the board most have done some damage because right now the board has refused to come on. I used a multi-meter to check the reading from the PSU and it is constantly at 12.5v but the molex for the sata is are all completely 0v. Same for the fan ground and 12v pin for the Fan male header. Curious enough, the control and sense pin out for the FAN reads about 4v. This is pretty much the only thing I was able to get reading from. Rest of the board just seem dead, no LED, no indication whatsoever that PSU is connected to the board. I am aware that the PSU was one of the weak side of the Helios4, But like I said, the pin out of the PSU reads 12.5v so I am thinking maybe this is an issue with a blown mosfet? I am a total newb when it comes to computer hardware. There are no device out there (arm based and DIY) That comes close to the Helios so I am pretty much stuck. Any advise on how to troubleshoot this would be very much welcome.
  2. Can you send me a message or how do we make this happen?
  3. I think I might have to take you up on this offer. I don't stay in Germany but I am sure I can be shipped to.
  4. I happen to have a USB 3 device. An odroid emmc writer. When I plugged it to my laptop and ran a lsusb -D here is what I got lsusb -D /dev/bus/usb/002/004 Device: ID 05e3:0749 Genesys Logic, Inc.

It is however detected. Just wondering why it is not seen as a usb3 device on the helios. root@helios4:~# lsusb -D /dev/bus/usb/004/004 Device: ID 05e3:0749 Genesys Logic, Inc.

  5. I am using it with a 2.5 WD slim 5v 0.55A drive. 1tb capacity. I am really confused. I could make a video. It works on my laptop and it is not even detected on via lsusb and the device led stays off. My mouse is detected right away though. Could this be a power supply issue I have been reading about issue some people had with the power supply that came with the Helios4.
  6. I used it with this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LY97QE8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The drive is a 1tb mechanical drive. No other device is connected. what is the max power budget and is it possible to increase it?
  7. Please I noticed the USB 3 interface on my helios4 does not detect an external drive. When I plug in a 2.5 inch drive through an orico sata to USB 3 device. Nothing happens, even lsusb shows nothing. Same drive is detected on my (Ubuntu 18.04) laptop. Interestingly, the Helios4 detect a USB mouse, I could see it via lsusb and the mouse led lights up when connected.
  8. Thanks. Just wanted to be sure.
  9. Hi guys, what do I need to do to setup the Helios4 as a iscsi target and allow other computers connect to it. I am running latest armbian (buster) Also would I be able to connect the Helios4 target to a 64b OS or it is doesn't matter.
  10. Hi everyone. Been running my helios4 since last year. Runs like clock work. I currently have 2 WD Red 4 terabyte drives and I am looking to add an additional 2 1tb ssd drives (using a 2.5 to 3.5 adapter) the SSD are meant to be a storage for VMs I would be running on my laptops but shared via NFS. This got me wondering if having SSD shared over NFS through a Gigabit ethernet would bring any added advantage. If the ethernet card would limit my maximising the potential of the ssd drives (in write shd read speeds) Can can I get a second ethernet (over usb 3) and have a bond interface with the onboard nic.. Would appreciate insight on this.
  11. Hey, I am considering getting this board as a openwrt router. How where you able to get them to commit to testing it before purchasing. Also have you had any issues since?
