PCIe To M.2 HAT
Designed for Raspberry Pi 5

This product is a dedicated M.2 adapter board for the Raspberry Pi 5, compatible with M.2 SSDs of sizes 2230/2242/2260/2280. It supports Gen2 and Gen3 modes and allows booting the Pi 5 from an SSD. The board features a streamlined design in the middle, which not only ensures structural integrity but also enhances airflow to reduce the SSD temperature. It has a transparent working status with onboard indicators: the PWR light is always on when powered, and the ACT light blinks during read/write operations.
Product Features
- Single-channel PCIe 2.0 interface
- Streamlined design that does not obstruct Raspberry Pi pins; only requires a soft ribbon cable for power
- Equipped with an external power supply interface to avoid concerns about insufficient power for starting the M.2 adapter board
- Supports devices using M.2 M Key edge connectors
- Supports SSDs with sizes 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280
- Supports Gen2 and Gen3 modes
- Supports NVMe SSD booting
- Dedicated M.2 adapter board for Raspberry Pi 5

Dedicated M.2 adapter board for the Raspberry Pi 5

Equipped with an external power supply interface to avoid concerns about insufficient power for starting the M.2 adapter board

Supports devices using M.2 M Key edge connectors

Compatible with M.2 SSDs of sizes 2230/2242/2260/2280. It supports Gen2 and Gen3 modes and allows booting the Pi 5 from an SSD.

The middle of the motherboard adopts a hollow design, which not only ensures structural integrity, but also enhances airflow and reduces SSD temperature.

It has a transparent working status: the onboard indicator light PWR is always on when powered on, and the onboard indicator light ACT flashes during read/write operation.
