Product Description
The PCIe to 4-Ch M.2 Adapter Board for Raspberry Pi 5 adds four M.2 slots for NVMe SSDs to the single-board computer. This version has the model code PCIE TO 4-CH NVME Board (B) NP. It serves systems requiring multiple SSDs or operating-system boot from an NVMe drive. Connection uses the Raspberry Pi 5's 16-pin PCIe interface. Power can come from the Raspberry Pi or the DC input jack; with external power, the board can also supply the Raspberry Pi through a three-pin cable.
Highlights
- Connects four NVMe M.2 SSDs to the Raspberry Pi 5.
- Supports SSD sizes 2280, 2260, 2242 and 2230.
- Faster reading and writing than the microSD card slot, with support for booting from an NVMe SSD.
- Can supply power to the Raspberry Pi 5 through the adapter board.
- Onboard LED indicators for monitoring operating status.
Technical Features
- Host platform: Raspberry Pi 5.
- Host connection: 16-pin PCIe interface, PCIe Gen2 x1.
- Storage connections: 4 × M.2 M-Key slots for NVMe SSDs.
- SSD sizes: 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280.
- External DC input: 7 to 24 V through the DC jack.
- Power output to Raspberry Pi: 5 V, up to 5 A, through a three-pin cable.
- Mounting position: underneath the Raspberry Pi 5.
- Included PCIe cable: 16 pins, 40 mm long.
- Power supply included: no.
Application Areas
- Building a Raspberry Pi 5 system with up to four NVMe storage drives.
- Booting the Raspberry Pi 5 from an NVMe SSD instead of a microSD card.
- Storing and processing files on SSDs with faster read and write access than the microSD slot.
Notes
- The M.2 slots support NVMe SSDs only; SATA SSDs are not supported.
- The PCIe connection is limited to Gen2 x1.
- The Raspberry Pi 5 is not included.
