About NVMe
Features: Compatible with other HAT shield Support boot from the NVMe drive 60mm length Flat Flex Cable Supports installation of official active coolers Dual LED Indicators:“PWR” and “ACT” Supports 2230/2242/2260/2280 NVME M2 SSD M.2 Standard-Compliant Power System Ext +5V Power input connector Base mounting Gettingstarted Firmware Make sure your Raspberry Pi 5 firmware is up to date with the 2023-12-06 or later version. Software update on the RPi OS should do this for you, but you canforce it by running sudorpi-eeprom-update in the Terminal. If you have updated your firmware and want to boot from the NVMe drive, you might have to get technical and run sudo rpi-eeprom-config --edit from the Terminal and change the BOOT_ORDER to be 0x416 instead of 0x41. To enable experimental and not-officially-supported PCIe 3 mode, add the follow lineto the [all] section at the end of your Raspberry Pi /boot/config.txt file like this: # Enable the PCIe external connector dtparam=pciex1 # Force Gen 3.0speeds dtparam=pciex1_gen=3 Bootingfrom NVMe If you want to boot from the NVMe drive follow these extra steps: Format the drive using Raspberry Pi Imager Shutdown Remove your microSD card Power back on Notes Always power off your RPi and disconnect the power supply before installing or uninstalling the NVPI5-2242T and NVPI5-2280B; NVPI5-2242T and NVPI5-2280B offers a general purpose PCIe x1 connection; We do not recommend WD Green SSDs at this time. Drives such as the SN350 are temperamental with the CM4 and RPi 5.
