“Fast delivery and very good product. I had to follow a tutorial on the site to get it to recognise the Raspberry. I recommend this card.”

“Very nice kit for good price! Easy to install, has everything included, works out of the box. Old Samsung 960PRO from 2016 not only works but can read 800-810MB/s when set to PCI-e 3. If you still wonder if you should buy it, yes, it's worth every penny. Now RPi feels more like a beefy VPS than a micro board.”

“Excellent NVMe base. I am able to use different kinds of heatsinks (active and passive) because the base is mounted below the Pi board.”

“This is a great little board and is very easy to put together. I worried it might be complex to get the OS onto the SSD but that was easy. Checking the performance against a RPI4 using a USB SSD I get a really good uplift. It makes the RPI5 feel really responsive. I talk through the performance in this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/Q9ENJATdtxc”
