“I just got NVMe Base and installed it without any problems (SSD Kingston M.2 PCIe NVMe 1TB NV2). However, I have two remarks:
- The cable between the MVMe base and RPI5 makes the SD card slot practically inaccessible. Any future revision of this board should correct this!
- RPI OS has no way to temporarily disable the NVMe (thus enabling USB BOOT). That makes the NVMe base practically useless for anybody who needs often to change OS configurations or switch between different OSes. To put a physical switch that enables/disables the NVMe would make a good product a great product!”
“The Raspberry Pi 5 is begging for the Pimoroni NVMe Base. I live "across the pond" so it took a bit for it to get to me. I received it yesterday. I installed it immediately and am delighted by the performance. I'm using a Samsung 980 M2 drive. Nice directions on line. Thank you Pimoroni. This was definitely worth the price (actually a bargain) and wait. I will order from Pimoroni again soon!”
“The NVMe Base is great. I’ve hooked it up to my Pi 5 with an eBay Samsung 961 SSD. Setup was easy, but I would have much preferred a set of instructions (online or otherwise) to a video”
