It is relatively easy to install even without instructions. It came with all the screws and standoffs needed to mount the device to a RPi 5, including small knurled thumbscrews to hold the NVME drives in place. You do have to be careful when aligning the GPIO pins to the connector on the HAT, but that is true of any HAT you are installing on a Raspberry Pi. Once I figured out a mistake I had made orienting the small PCIe interface cable it came online and I was able to install the two NVME drives I had purchased for my NAS project. This HAT is compatible with the OpenMediaVault NAS software I am using, although that is not a surprise. It should be compatible with almost any software or operating system given that it comes online so easily. The price point is good, too. Overall I am pleased with this purchase. Review: Good Product - Easy to install. Worked for me right out of the box. ## Features - 2-Ch NVMe Protocol M.2 Solid State Drive Adapter, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Compatible With 2280 / 2260 / 2242 / 2230 Size M.2 Solid State Drives - Supports PCIE X1 Gen2 Only, Supports Booting PI5 From Solid State Drive - Faster reading/writing speed compared to the TF card slot of Raspberry Pi , greatly improving reading/writing efficiency of the system or files, Supports booting Pi5 from NVME Solid State Drive. - Real-time monitoring of Solid State Drive power status for More Stable operation ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0D8FPNLYR | | Best Sellers Rank | #747 in Single Board Computers (Computers & Accessories) | | Brand | waveshare | | Built-In Media | PCIe TO 2-CH M.2 HAT+ (B) | | Compatible Devices | Raspberry Pi 5 | | Connector Type | PCIe | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 97 Reviews | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 0.05 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Waveshare | | Mfr Part Number | PCIe TO 2-CH M.2 HAT+ (B) | | Model Number | PCIe TO 2-CH M.2 HAT+ (B) | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Ports | 2 | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Warranty Description | 1 year | ## Product Details - **Brand:** waveshare - **Compatible Devices:** Raspberry Pi 5 - **Connectivity Technology:** PCIe - **Hard Disk Description:** Solid State Drive - **Hard Disk Interface:** NVMe - **Included Components:** 1 x PCB, 2 x HAT, 4 x Screw, 8 x Jumper - **Installation Type:** Internal Hard Drive - **Model Name:** PCIe TO 2-CH M.2 HAT+ (B) - **Special Feature:** High-Speed Reading/Writing, Real-time Monitoring of SSD Power Status, Onboard LED Indicators - **Write Speed:** 3000 MB/s ## Images ![Waveshare PCIe to 2-CH M.2 HAT, Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, Support M.2 NVMe Solid State Drive 2230 2242 2280, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71iTPAlZecL.jpg) ![Waveshare PCIe to 2-CH M.2 HAT, Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, Support M.2 NVMe Solid State Drive 2230 2242 2280, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71p6gGQmuNL.jpg) ![Waveshare PCIe to 2-CH M.2 HAT, Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, Support M.2 NVMe Solid State Drive 2230 2242 2280, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615wh95yejL.jpg) ![Waveshare PCIe to 2-CH M.2 HAT, Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, Support M.2 NVMe Solid State Drive 2230 2242 2280, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61im+CDzAYL.jpg) ![Waveshare PCIe to 2-CH M.2 HAT, Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, Support M.2 NVMe Solid State Drive 2230 2242 2280, High-Speed Reading/Writing - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61pGdSrOBGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well with my Raspberry Pi 5 NAS *by S***N on September 28, 2025* This PCIe two channel M.2 Pi HAT works very well with the RPi 5.
