Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+

Expand your Raspberry Pi’s storage capabilities with the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ (Model B), a high-performance expansion board designed to integrate a standard M.2 NVMe SSD directly onto your Raspberry Pi 5. This official HAT+ is perfect for users demanding faster storage speeds, better reliability, and native boot support from NVMe drives. The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ interfaces with the Raspberry Pi 5’s PCIe 2.0 x1 lane through a compact FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) cable connection. It accommodates M.2 M-Key or B&M-Key NVMe drives (2230 and 2242 form factors) and is fully compliant with the HAT+ specification for easy, plug-and-play use. An integrated temperature-controlled 5V blower fan ensures optimal thermal performance during heavy read/write operations, critical for maintaining peak SSD speeds and lifespan. This HAT+ also features a secure PCIe lock mechanism and mounting points that align precisely with the Raspberry Pi 5 for stable and durable assembly. Ideal for projects requiring high-speed booting, fast file access, database hosting, and expanded project storage, the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ delivers enterprise-grade performance to hobbyist and professional Raspberry Pi applications alike.
