Description:
The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ Compact is the perfect way to add lightning-fast NVMe storage to your Raspberry Pi 5. Designed as a new, compact version of the M.2 HAT+, this board lets you harness the full speed of the PCIe 2.0 interface, with data transfer rates of up to 500 MB/s.
Unlike other HATs, this one is engineered to work perfectly with the official Raspberry Pi 5 Case. Its clever L-shaped design and low-profile header allow it to fit without blocking the case's cooling fan or heatsinks, even with the lid on. Just connect the built-in PCIe ribbon cable and GPIO header, and you're ready to go—no extra cables needed.
Features:
- Designed for use with Raspberry Pi 5 and the official Raspberry Pi 5 Case
- Compact design avoids interference with the official case fan and heatsink
- Not compatible with the Active cooler
