Different single-board computers with similar GPIO positioning can be mounted on the base plate, also 2.5" hard disks (SSD/HDD).
Single-board computer without casing are sold standardly. Community or industry have developed casing forms out of most different material like paper, wood, aluminium and Plexiglass®. Often are these cases adjusted for a model of Paspberry Pi.
