NVMe storage made easy on the Pi 5
Picked this up to go with the Geekworm case for a Raspberry Pi 5 home assistant build, and it does exactly what it’s meant to. Fits cleanly, no alignment issues, and once installed it just worked – the Pi recognised the NVMe drive without any drama. Performance is solid, much faster and smoother than running everything off an SD card, and it feels like it really unlocks what the Pi 5 can do. Combined with the case and active cooler, it makes for a tidy, reliable little setup. If you want proper storage on a Pi 5, this board is a no-brainer.

Works good, but try your best to confirm compatibility before purchase
Quite a neat little addition to the Pi and boasts potential 2-3x speed increase compared to a USB caddy for an NVMe. Only downside is it didn't work with the SSD I was using initially and it wasn't obvious what the issue was. After some Googling, I found a comment from a user referencing material (I couldn't find) that said the particular Phison (?) NVMe controller could sometimes not function correctly with the hat. After changing out to a new SSD, it just started working perfectly at 8GB/s.

Very good.
Easy to fit. Bought with a cheap 512Gb NVME M2 (Fikwot) and I am now launched into the 4th dimension of Pi'ing. I don't think that is a word but, you know what I mean. I thought it didn't make much of a difference at first. Then when I changed my mind about what OS to use, I booted from the SD card again and it was so slow. Booting from this is considerably faster. Well packaged and works perfectly. Also bought a UGreen USB-C caddy for the NVME and you can use Pi Imager straight to the drive in the USB caddy to install. Then just put the drive in here and you are ready to go.

Great piece of kit
Works great, and discrete enough that it doesn’t fully cover cooler

Perfect and a must have in my view
Worked the first time without a hitch with simple to follow instructions. Only criticism is about the ribbon cable which is about 3cms long and can be quite fiddly to install. Also, It doesn't account for passive heatsinks for installation, so will need modding with brackets to affix over it. Overall impressive performance, hopefully remains that way :-)

Enkel och effektiv prestanda-boost för Raspberry Pi 5!
Funkar utmärkt för min Raspberry Pi 5. Installationen var smidig och skillnaden i prestanda är enorm jämfört med att köra från ett SD-kort. Allt från uppstart till att öppna program går betydligt snabbare nu med en NVMe-disk. Det här är verkligen en uppgradering som gör skillnad och låter dig få ut max av din Pi. Rekommenderas varmt till alla som vill ha en snabbare och mer responsiv Raspberry Pi 5!
