Hello everyone, I'm still a bit green when it comes to electronics. I recently bought reComputer AI R2000 from Seeed Studio, which is basiclly a Rasberry Pi 5 with Halio AI accelerator.

When I unboxed it, I found a loose thermal pad inside. I can't figure out if it's just an addtional spare part (like for an NVMe drive), or if I am supposed to open the case and put it somwhere inside right away.

Has anyone already worked with the reComputer and could tell me what it is for?

Thanks in advance!
