The Aluminum edition case appears to be a remarked FLIRC case, which was the original Pi passive cooled case, but IMHO the newer Argon Neo, iUniker, and Geekworm passive cases are superior. They tend to have contact sinks for chips other than the cpu on the Pi that produce heat, and gaps for GPIO and camera ribbons. Search "pi 4 passive aluminum case" on Amazon for examples.

Side note: Nextcloud is only used by 2 of us and I disabled unneeded features and optimized the config. If you have more than a few Nextcloud users you might be better off with a true NAS device. It's by far the most resource intensive of all my containers.
but it is good, I notice that the protective case heats up, but I imagine it is because it dissipates heat passively without a fan, which is excellent and without noise.

On (the big auction site) I scored an Elitedesk 800 SFF with an i5-4590, 8GB of RAM and a 2TB hard disk. All this for $110, and there were plenty of similar options when I was searching.
Something to think about for anyone who's project doesn't need to be small, low power, or require the expansion header on the Pi.
If you do not mind the power consumption and footprint, with Business Desktops being so cheap, I would go this route.
Thanks
I have not encountered that issue. Set mine up weeks ago and it has been solid.
You can verify the chip's current power saving mode by:
journalctl | grep brcmfmac
