“NVMe Base is not designed for Argon NEO 5 BRED Case for Raspberry Pi 5 × 1, but it's a great step forward to use Raspberry Pis on desktop, having always enough disk space on SSDs”

“It's Working great. My Raspberry Pi 5 is now equipped with this 500GB M2 NVMe SSD drive. The instructions to set up the drive are clear and all is working fine. Booting from the microSD with RaspberryPiOS. then using rpi-imager to install it on the SSD ... Et voilà I didn't physically follow the instructions : my NVMe Base board is side by side with my Raspberry Pi 5 to fit inside my SmartiPi Touch Pro case.”

“Used the imager software on the Raspberry Pi 5 running from an SD card, via the Image program, then rebooted and changed the dtparms to use the version 3 PCI-e and then removed the SD card and booted up without problems. Now going to produce (MariaDB) an Environment database for my home. Then in a few months will be able to control the heating better with radiator controls.”
