Expand Your Raspberry Pi 5
The Official Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ unlocks high-speed storage and peripheral options for your Raspberry Pi 5. Designed to connect NVMe SSDs and other PCIe accessories, it transforms your Pi into a powerful, flexible platform for advanced projects.
Seamless PCIe Integration
This adapter board converts the Pi 5’s PCIe connector into a single M.2 M-key edge slot, supporting devices in the 2230 and 2242 form factors. With a single-lane PCIe 2.0 interface, it delivers a peak transfer rate of up to 500 MB/s, ensuring fast and reliable data access. Power and activity LEDs provide clear status indicators during operation.
Built for Performance and Compatibility
The M.2 HAT+ supplies up to 3A of power to connected devices, making it suitable for SSDs and AI accelerators. It conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification, allowing Raspberry Pi OS to automatically detect the board and peripherals. Installation is simple thanks to the included ribbon cable, threaded spacers, screws, and a knurled double-flanged drive attachment screw. A 16 mm GPIO stacking header ensures compatibility with the Raspberry Pi Active Cooler.
