Custom Raspberry Pi X872 NVMe M.2 2280 SATA SSD Shield/Expansion Board for Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Manufacturer

NOTES

 

NOT INCLUDE raspberry pi board

Additional spacer required for SSD lengths 2260, 2242 and 2230 (not supplied with X872)

A microSD card is required for forcing the Raspbian OS to use the HDD/SSD for its "root" partition

Only compatible with NVMe M.2 SSDs

Not compatible with M.2 SATA SSDs, M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, or other M.2 non-NVMe devices

As with all SSDs, new media must be formatted before use, please refer to Tutorial Initalize New SSD

SSDs use exceptionally high performance storage media that will run hot when under load

Older SSD drives with less efficient flash media may not perform as well as newer drives

USB 3.0 devices might generate radio frequency interference that can cause Wi-Fi and other wireless devices operating in the 2.4GHz band to have issues communicating with your Raspberry Pi4. To avoid interference on the 2.4GHz band using Wi-Fi, try using the 5GHz band instead. If problem still exists, please turn off WiFi and use the wired network instead.
