🚀 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

  1. Insert SSD into M.2 slot (NVMe or SATA).

  2. Attach the HAT to Pi 5’s GPIO header.

  3. Boot Pi 5 → Enable NVMe in raspi-config (Advanced Options > Boot Order).

  4. Clone OS (or fresh install) to SSD using rpi-imager.

📌 Pro Tip: Add a heatsink to avoid SSD throttling under sustained loads!
