I have this case with the pinepro64. I'm using it with m.2 nvme stick, but
not the SSD/HDD that it was "built" for (since I could get away with a much
smaller case w/o HDD/SSD. I haven't yet decided if I need a fan in the case
or not apart from the fan I got for the 3399 CPU.

So far I like it, but I also made sure I got the extra beefy power supply.
It's still early days, but this has been so far a better experience, once I
got the right patches, than other of my small board uses which were great
for embedded control, light web stuff, but terrible for development,
routing or NAS duty.
