Why use an SSD for your Raspberry Pi 5?
Using an SSD with your Raspberry Pi 5 has many advantages over traditional microSD cards. Firstly, an SSD offers much faster read and write speeds, which greatly improves overall system performance, especially when booting and loading applications. With this official SSD, you'll enjoy a longer lifespan for your Raspberry Pi 5, especially for projects that require continuous operation or frequent write cycles. In addition, SSDs are much more durable and resistant to wear, making them perfect for intensive or frequent write operations, such as servers or home automation systems. Finally, the Raspberry Pi 5's native SSD compatibility makes installation easy, allowing you to maximise the efficiency of your device and extend the lifespan of your data.
How to use this SSD on your Raspberry Pi 5?
To use this M.2 2230 SSD, you'll need the official Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT, or alternatives such as Pimoroni's base or a Pineboards extension (Dual NVMe, Piano, AI, NET 1G), which offer different options depending on your customisation and performance optimisation needs. These expansion boards allow you to get the most out of your M.2 2230 SSD!
