Description

N07 is an bottom-mounted NVME M.2 SSD(NVMe 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 GEN 3) PIP (PCIe Peripheral Board) for the Raspberry Pi 5 that uses the new PCIE interface of the Raspberry Pi 5 to utilise the NVME M2 SSDs for fast data transfers and ultra-fast booting.

N07 is compatible with the standard HAT size of Raspberry Pi and supports quad sizes of NVMe SSD: 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280. The included SSD mounting screws make it convenient for users to switch between the two sizes at any time.

Features

• Designed for RPI 5: Dedicated to the latest single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi 5.
• NVMe Capability: Supports installing NVMe (M-key) drives in M.2 format sizes 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280, extra custom CNC SSD mount screw, no soldering required.
• PCIe Support: PCIe x1 interface in both Gen2 & Gen3 standards.
• Ventilation hole design: Ventilation hole design provides excellent ventilation airflow for cooling.
• Gold-plated PCB: Gold-plated PCBs offer superior electrical performance.
• PCIe ultra-short signal lines: The short trace routing of PCIe is more reliable and faster, fully meeting the signal requirements of PCIe 3.0.
• LED Indicators: Features LED light for M.2 disk activity (“ACT”).
• M.2 Standard-Compliant Power System: Integrated voltage regulator delivering up to 3A for the 3.3V power rail, compliant with M.2 (NGFF) standard.
• All Necessary Accessories Included: Comes with a FPC PCIe ribbon, M2 and M2.5 screws, spacers, and extra custom CNC SSD mount screw.

How to enable PCIe on Raspberry Pi 5?

• Modify /boot/firmware/config.txt and adding following parameters:

dtparam=pciex1

And the connection is certified for Gen 2.0 speed (5 GT/sec), but you can force it to Gen 3.0 (10 GT/sec) if you add the following line after:

dtparam=pciex1_gen=3

You can run devices at PCIe Gen 3.0 speeds if you test and they run stable.

• Enable auto detection PCIe and booting from NVME.

sudo rpi-eeprom-config --edit

Adding following parts:

PCIE_PROBE=1
BOOT_ORDER=0xf416 

The 6 means to enable booting from nvme. Reboot Raspberry Pi 5 and try to use `lsblk` or `lspci -vvv` to get more details of the PCIe device.
