Description

Add two super-fast NVMe SSDs to your Raspberry Pi 5! Ideal if you need redundancy or just a load more storage on your RPi.

NVMe Base Duo is a PCIe Gen 2 extension board for Raspberry Pi 5. Simply populate it with one or two M-key NVMe SSDs (2230 to 2280 sizes supported) and mount it under (or over) your Pi for a compact and fast storage solution - It even comes with rubber feet!

It's the perfect solution for turning your Raspberry Pi 5 into a file server, media centre, reverse proxy, home automation server with built in backup, etc. - really any task that benefits from large amounts of fast storage, redundancy, or just to make use of a couple of spare disks - especially with random high operations per second (IOPS) workloads. In short it's a game changer!

NVMe Base Duo follows the new "PIP" design guidelines provided by Raspberry Pi ensuring that it will be easy to use and be supported long term by updates to Raspberry Pi OS - though it is very early days and things are improving rapidly there!

NOTE: It is now possible to boot from NVMe drives installed on NVMe Base Duo! ???? Make sure your Raspberry Pi firmware is updated to the most recent version (17/05/24 or later).

Base Kit

  • NVMe Base Duo PCB with two M.2 slots (M-Key)
  • 'PCIe Flex' Flat Flex Cable
  • 4x Rubber feet
  • 4x M2 bolt and 2x 5mm standoffs for SSD mounting
  • 4x 12mm M2.5 standoffs for base mounting
  • 8x short M2.5 bolts for base mounting
  • 4x 20mm M2.5 bolts for 'pass-thru' mounting with a HAT

The shipping product may have minor differences to the photos, but will be the same in essentials.

NVMe Base Duo + 500GB (2 x 250GB) SSD Bundle

  • Base Kit
  • 2 x 250GB+ NVMe SSDs

NVMe Base Duo + 1000GB (2 x 500GB) SSD Bundle

  • Base Kit
  • 2 x 500GB+ NVMe SSDs

We recommend running the Raspberry Pi 5 at PCIe Gen 2 x 1 speeds with this Base. The total throughput is around 450MB/sec, or 220MB/sec+ per disk for simultaneous access as they share the bandwidth through the PCIe switch.

Due to the tides and vagaries of the SSD market, we will ship whichever drives offer the best value for decent specs. We can say that:

  • They will have 250/500GB or better capacity
  • They will be rated by the manufacturer at PCIe Gen 3 or better speed (although Duo only supports Gen 2 speeds)
  • We'll have personally tested this model of drive with NVMe Base Duo.
  • They'll be backed by the usual Pimoroni guarantees and customer service.

NOTE: Bundled drives may be from the same manufacturing batch. If you're a storage-integrity aficionado, you may want to source your own drives to avoid the unlikely edge-case of an issue or bug affecting an entire batch of drives.

Drive Compatibility

We've tested NVMe Base Duo with the following drives successfully. We have usually tested one drive from one batch, so this is not comprehensive, or an 'Approved' list, but it's a good guide for drives to seek out.

In general, as the drives are behind the switch and not being used at boot we’ve found a much wider range of drives to be working and useful compared to the standard NVMe Base.
