“Had an issue with Pi5 PCIE slot not working after purchasing this base. Great service and care from Pihut,replaced my Pi 5which arrived today and plugged base in works fine, will be seeting up the 512 SSD drive on it.”
“The NVMe Base for Raspberry Pi 5 offers solid performance, though the installation process can be a bit fiddly, particularly when it comes to the connector. Positioned on the bottom of the Raspberry Pi 5, this setup is more advantageous compared to top placement. Installation using PiOS (Debian) was smooth and straightforward, but I couldn't get it bootable with Ubuntu 24.10. Nonetheless, the overall build quality is impressive. Moreover, the shipping to Germany was swift, and it's commendable to see efficient business practices even after the UK's departure from the EU.”
“In fact, as I ordered the Argon ONE v3, The NVMe base was not necessary. During my web research I didn't notice that unfortunately. I don't know if the orders are reviewed by a human, but if this is the case I would have really appreciated that this was pointed out so we could have corrected the order and removed this item not needed.”
