Excellent piece of kit makes the raspberry pi so much quicker on boot up about 10 secs from a cold start Only issue no installation paper work but good old YouTube soon sorted that out

Received my Pimoroni NVME Base with 500GB SSD for my Raspberry Pi5. Installation was easy to follow, and it works great.

It was promptly shipped and very easy to attach to the pi 5. It was easy to set the pi to use it and it works fantastic. I highly recommend it.

Everything is in the package. It all fits well, and it has worked for me every time. I wish all pi upgrades worked as well as yours. Thank you

Fits beautifully under the Pi5 NVMe fixing screw seems missing or doesn't include a rubber post or spacer.

Ahoy Gabriel, Sorry to hear that you're missing fixings - you should have two M2 nuts and a M2 screw to hold the drive in place. There's photos showing assembly in our Learn guide: https://learn.pimoroni.com/article/getting-started-with-nvme-base If anything's missing please drop us a line at support@pimoroni.com with a photo of what you've received and we'll get it sorted :)
