## Description

Product description

Review: pfSense on ZimaBoard 232 solid so far! - I bought my Zimaboard 232 for a pfSense project, to build a dedicated site-to-site Wireguard tunnel between my data core pfSense router and a new remote node. As a long-time Raspberry Pi builder, I was really excited by the possibilities of the Zimaboard. My first impression was that the coolness factor is just off the charts. The heatsinks look sweet. No fans. Dual NICs, PCIe slot, how cool is this! The chipset even supports AES-NI CPU crypto, which is really important for VPN routers (even though I don’t get to take advantage of that with Wireguard). The possibilities are vast with this thing. For my application, I added rubber feet to stabilize it on a flat surface. The Zimaboard has enough weight to make it stick to a desktop nicely with the added feet. I’m a bit surprised this wasn’t included with it. Installing pfSense was exactly as it usually is (F11 key to enter boot device selection to boot from USB). It went quick with no surprises. It assigned the two NICs to re0 and re1, left and right ports on the rear of the Zimaboard respectively. I have read online that pfSense sometimes has issues with Realtek NICs, but after 3 weeks of heavy traffic utilization, I have had zero glitches. I have not had to disable hardware checksum offload in pfSense. Solid. I have pushed close to 10 TB of data through my Wireguard tunnel in the last 3 weeks, and it hasn’t missed a beat. The processor keeps up with Wireguard throughput up to around 150mbps very well. I will attach a screenshot of the pfSense dashboard that was captured after a large file transfer had been running through the Wireguard tunnel for about 10 minutes at around 80mbps. This is perfect for my application. It also comes with some very cool stickers, which I just love. Nice touch. Rock solid on pfSense so far. So cool!
Review: Very Capable Little Computer - Passive Heatsink is Excellent - I bought the ZimaBoard as a small server for my barn which lacks heating and air conditioning. The ZimaBoard's big heatsink looks perfect, and removes the possibility of a fan failing in the harsh environment. It hasn't faced summertime heat yet, but it runs cool so far. I'll update this review if something goes wrong when the hot weather arrives. It seems like the ZimaBoard would be comparable to the Raspberry Pi 4, but as much as I love the RasPi and the company's mission, the ZimaBoard is really in a different league. It seems snappy, and my benchmarking confirms it: The ZimaBoard is much faster, and it runs amd64 architecture which is nice. It has a bigger footprint than the RasPi, but it's still tiny. Quality is far nicer than I expected at this price point, and it feels heavy and solid. So far so good. It appears that this will be a great little headless server, and might even have enough grunt for desktop use. UPDATE 07/23/2023: It's summertime and my ZimaBoard has stayed up without a hitch, even in an environment without air conditioning. This week I moved 7TB of data through it with rsync, which caused a continuous load of about 35% CPU usage for 24 hours, and it handled the task, no problem. And this was during a heat wave with 100°F (~38°C) daytime temps. Once the CPU nears 50°C it throttles down, keeping temps in check, and without much performance hit in my case. Turns out, the ZimaBoard is as rugged as it looks, and the passive heatsink does its job, even in the heat. UPDATE 08/05/2024 It's been two snowy winters and two very hot summers and my Zimaboard has been rock solid, all without climate control. Aside from reboots from updates or the occasional power outage, it's been up and available, no hiccups, no drama. During an especially frigid stretch last winter I threw a shoebox over it for a couple days, but I doubt if it even needed it. I always know that when I SSH over to it, it'll answer. Couldn't be happier.

## Features

- Server-Class Home Server Built for 24/7 Workloads - Designed as a purpose-built home server rather than general-purpose SBCs, Mini PCs, entry NAS systems, or routing-only devices. As a compact, pocket-sized single board server platform, ZimaBoard 2 1664 combines x86 architecture, quad-core performance up to 3.6GHz, 16GB DDR5 memory, and 64GB eMMC storage for reliable always-on home servers, homelabs, and self-hosted workloads.
- PCIe 3.0 x4 Expansion for Real Server Builds - Built as a server-class platform with native PCIe expansion, ZimaBoard 2 features a full PCIe 3.0 x4 slot for high-speed, low-latency upgrades beyond USB-based limitations. Supports 10GbE NICs, NVMe adapters, GPUs, and AI accelerators to build scalable home servers, homelabs, and advanced self-hosted systems—offering greater expansion flexibility than typical SBCs, Mini PCs, and entry-level NAS devices.
- Native Dual SATA & Dual 2.5GbE Networking - Built with server-class storage and networking I/O, ZimaBoard 2 integrates dual SATA ports for direct HDD/SSD connectivity and dual 2.5GbE Ethernet for high-throughput, low-latency networking. This architecture enables reliable DIY NAS, fast storage, routing, and multi-service home server deployments—while avoiding USB-based performance constraints common in ARM SBCs, Raspberry Pi–based setups, Mini PCs, and entry-level NAS devices.
- ZimaOS Preinstalled + Wide OS Compatibility - Comes preinstalled with ZimaOS for a clean, ad-free private cloud experience—centralized file dashboard, automatic backups, P2P downloads, private photo/video sharing, 500+ plug-ins, and secure on-device AI that keeps your data at home.

Duuhh, Sorry. ****-----**** Reading the comments of Xbox Gamertag (3 stars only), and in the second comment he says: "2. Sometimes Zima gets into a weird state and will not power on. Plugging in the power cable makes the power light flash once and turn off. To fix this you have to disassemble the case and unplug the CMOS battery which is thankfully socketed, then power it up. I've observed this happens the most when any kind of sleep or hibernation feature turns on. If you didn't know this, you'd just think it was dead and return it as junk. Be sure to disable all sleep, hibernation, and power saving OS options to avoid this." That is happening to my ZB and was this close to return the item. I will hold to it for a couple more weeks and see if I can withstand the hassle. Going from 2 to 3 stars. I will update my comment in case there is something worth mentioning. 3 photos attached showing acrylic base removed and Brass Spacers Standoffs added. UPDATE (SEP 7, 2024): I installed pfSense as my personal firewall and router, working great so far. Nothing to complain about. Zero issues.
