🚀 Why Use an SSD with Pi 5?
-
10x Faster than microSD (200MB/s vs 20MB/s random writes)
-
Longer Lifespan – SSDs endure more read/write cycles
-
Stable Performance – No SD card corruption risks
-
Ideal For:
-
Home NAS (via Samba/NFS)
-
4K Media Server (Plex/Jellyfin)
-
AI/ML Workloads (Dataset storage)
-
🔧 Installation Guide
-
Insert SSD into M.2 slot (NVMe or SATA).
-
Attach the HAT to Pi 5’s GPIO header.
-
Boot Pi 5 → Enable NVMe in
raspi-config(Advanced Options > Boot Order). -
Clone OS (or fresh install) to SSD using
rpi-imager.
📌 Pro Tip: Add a heatsink to avoid SSD throttling under sustained loads!
