M.2 NVME PCIE Expansion Board for Argon ONE V3

If you've already bought an Argon ONE V3 case for your Raspberry Pi 5, but now you want to add some fast M.2 NVME storage to it - this expansion board is for you!

This expansion board effectively converts your standard Argon ONE V3 case into an Argon ONE V3 M.2 NVME case. Only the lower section is included - you'll need to add your own Argone ONE V3 case and M.2 NVME drive (and a Raspberry Pi 5 of course!).

The expansion works with any M.2 NVME with M-Key up to 2280 size.

Note: You will need to use an official 27W Raspberry Pi power supply with this case addition, to ensure sufficient power for the Pi, case and NVMe drive.

NVME Compatability

Some customers have reported compatibility issues with certain brands/models of NVME drives. Whilst no 'official' compatibility list is maintained by Argon40 (yet), we have made them aware and discussions on their own forum are highlighting the need for clarification.

For now, we suggest following the same compatibility list on the Pimoroni NVME Base page as a starting point until something official is shared from Argon40. Please also read our troubleshooting guide.
