It works great. If you are getting the NVMe Base Case also, then ignore the assembly instructions for the NVMe Base and follow the instructions for the Base Case instead.

Very easy to install on the Pi. Software was simple to set up and move the boot drive from the microSD to an NVMe drive. The instruction provided were excellent and easy to follow. The flat cable was a little tricky to get installed though.

I needed a bottom board to run my duel boot, (Android TV and Linux) Pi 5 as I needed a DAC hat for audio. Fitted and worked started straight away.

good, but I'm not sure if the NVMe temperature will affect the Pi.

Cracking! I've purchased two of these now to use as part of Pi 5 desktop setups for me and my wife (goodbye Windross - I'd like to say it was a pleasure, but it wasn't!!!! ). Assembly is a piece of cake - just watch the video that the lovely Pimoroni peeps have posted and take your time! Used with an Active Cooler, Official Pi PSU and finished off with Pimoroni's NVMe case. Faultless!

Mounting is a little jank. Attaching to the pi is fine, but they could have used the same standoff motherboards use for NVMe cards with a screw through the bottom and a recess to accomodate the half crescent mounting properly. This might work with the heatsink case in place of the bottom cover, but you'll need to get non-threaded standoffs (the stock long screws are long enough and the same thread)
