Raspberry Pi SSD Kit for Raspberry Pi 5 256GB

The Raspberry Pi SSD Kit is a convenient all-in-one solution designed to significantly improve storage performance on the Raspberry Pi 5. It combines an NVMe solid-state drive with the official Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+, making it ideal for demanding workloads, fast boot times, and data-intensive applications.

The SSD is pre-installed on the M.2 HAT+, so the kit is ready to use straight out of the box. Simply connect it to your Raspberry Pi 5 (board not included) and enjoy a noticeable upgrade in system responsiveness.

To ensure secure mounting, the package includes a 16 mm stacking header, spacers, and fixing screws. When using the supplied spacers, an official Raspberry Pi Active Cooler can also be installed underneath the HAT at the same time.

The kit is available with a 256 GB or 512 GB NVMe SSD (select the preferred capacity before purchase). When connected via the single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface on Raspberry Pi 5, the SSD delivers the following typical performance:

Raspberry Pi 5 and Active Cooler are not included.
