A 5V/5A power supply will not be okay to power a Raspberry Pi and four SSDs. I'd budget 3A for the Pi and 1.5A for each drive. Note that some power supplies are barely good for half their rating.What about using a dual NVMe base board instead, and then plugging 2 x SSD external drives into the USB 3.0 ports? I know the USB will loose some performance but 5Gbps should be good enough.
In terms of power, I think 5V/5A from the power supply should be enough for all that right?
Yea I saw the Radxa's SATA HAT, but he also said in his video about heat being the issue. And not sure if there is a case for it all without 3D printer.
