IceWhale Black Friday Deals Bring Discounts on ZimaBoard, ZimaBoard SE, and ZimaCube Home Servers
IceWhale has launched its Black Friday promotion, giving home server enthusiasts a chance to pick up Zima hardware at reduced prices. The sale runs from November 12 through November 30 and includes discounts on several popular products, including the ZimaBoard SE, ZimaBoard 2, and ZimaCube 2.
For anyone interested in building a compact home server, setting up a DIY NAS, managing backups, or creating a personal media hub, this seasonal sale may be worth a look. IceWhale is advertising discounts of up to 50 percent, though the biggest reductions appear to apply mainly to select accessories rather than the main server systems.
The most affordable option in the lineup is the ZimaBoard SE 864, previously known as the ZimaBlade. During the Black Friday sale, it is priced at $144, down from its usual $159. IceWhale is also including a free NVMe adapter, making the deal more appealing for users who want to experiment with storage expansion in a small and efficient home server setup.
The ZimaBoard 2 is aimed at users who want a compact DIY NAS system for testing, learning, and home lab projects. The Mini NAS Kit, which includes a PCIe dual NVMe M.2 SSD adapter card, has been reduced from $469 to $409. IceWhale is also adding a free four-port USB adapter, giving buyers more flexibility when connecting extra peripherals or storage devices.
For users with larger storage needs, the ZimaCube 2 is the more powerful option. It is designed for bigger tasks such as photo backups, large media collections, private cloud storage, and more advanced home server workloads. During the sale, the ZimaCube 2 is available for $749 instead of its regular $799 price. Buyers also receive a free USB4 SSD enclosure as part of the promotion.
IceWhale is adding another bonus for larger orders. Customers who spend more than $399 receive a PCIe-to-2.5G Ethernet adapter card, which could be useful for improving network performance in a NAS or home server environment.
While the advertised “up to 50 percent” discount may not apply to the main ZimaBoard and ZimaCube devices, the current Black Friday deals still offer useful savings, especially when the free accessories are included. For anyone planning to build a home server, upgrade a personal NAS, or start a home lab, this sale provides a timely opportunity to get IceWhale hardware at a lower price.
