Product Description
The N05 M.2 NVMe Adapter for Raspberry Pi 5 (SKU Raspberry52Pi-N05-M.2-2242-NVMe-Top-for-Raspberry-Pi-5) is a PCIe-to-M.2 top extension board that puts an NVMe SSD on the Pi 5's PCIe connector.
Spec sheet
- Brand: Raspberry Pi
- Host: Raspberry Pi 5, interfacing directly with its PCIe connector
- Module support: M.2 2242 NVMe SSD
- Form factor: top-mounted extension board, compact PCB
- Mounting: keeps to standard Raspberry Pi 5 mounting arrangements
Integration notes
The board attaches directly to the Pi 5, so the SSD sits on the PCIe interface and expands the Pi's storage. NVMe storage is significantly faster than a microSD card, which matters on builds with sustained logging or storage duties.
Because it is a top-mounted board, allow for the added stack height when specifying cases, brackets and custom enclosures. The standard Pi 5 mounting arrangement is retained, so existing mounting points are still used.
The adapter supports M.2 2242 NVMe SSD modules. Confirm the SSD is a 2242 module at the quoting stage rather than on site.
