The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ enables you to connect M.2 peripherals such as NVMe drives and AI accelerators to Raspberry Pi 5’s PCIe 2.0 interface, supporting fast (up to 500 MB/s) data transfer to and from NVMe drives and other PCIe accessories.Raspberry Pi 5’s single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface is exposed on a 16-pin, 0.5mm pitchFPC connector; the M.2 HAT+ M Key is a mechanical adapter board that converts between this connector and a subset of the M.2 standard. It supports devices that have the M.2 M key edge connector, in the 2230 and 2242 form factors. It is capable of supplying up to 3A to connected M.2 devices.The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification and is autodetected by the latest Raspberry Pi software/firmware. It is supplied with a 16mm stacking header and threaded spacers, so it can be fitted to a Raspberry Pi 5 with the Raspberry Pi Active Cooler in place. SpecificationFeatures: Supports single-lane PCIe 2.0 interface (500 MB/s peak transfer rate) Supports devices that use the M.2 M key edge connector Supports devices with the 2230 or 2242 form factor Capable of supplying up to 3A to connected M.2 devices Includes power and activity LEDs Conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification Supplied with ribbon cable, 16mm stacking header, threaded spacers and screws, and knurled double-flanged screw to secure and support the M.2 peripheral Operating temperature: 0℃ to 50℃ (ambient)Production lifetime: The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ will remain in production until atleast January 2032Compliance: For a full list of local and regional product approvals, pleasevisit pip.raspberrypi.com
