The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ enables you to connect M.2 peripherals such as NVMe drives and AI accelerators to the Raspberry Pi 5 PCIe 2.0 interface, supporting fast (up to 500 MB/s) data transfer to and from NVMe drives and other PCIe accessories.

Raspberry Pi 5’s single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface is exposed on a 16-pin, 0.5mm-pitch FPC connector; the M.2 HAT+ M Key is a mechanical adapter board that converts between this connector and a subset of the M.2 standard.

It supports devices that have the M.2 M key edge connector, in the 2230 and 2242 form factors. It is capable of supplying up to 3A to connected M.2 devices.

The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification and is autodetected by the latest Raspberry Pi software/firmware (please ensure you update Raspberry Pi OS before using). It is supplied with a 16mm stacking header and threaded spacers, so it can be fitted to a Raspberry Pi 5 with the Raspberry Pi Active Cooler in place.

We also offer the Raspberry Pi AI kit, which is a bundle of this HAT and a Hailo AI accelerator module, and a minimalist layer case for the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+!

Raspberry Pi and NVMe devices not included.

FAQ

  • Can I fit the M.2 HAT+ inside the official Raspberry Pi 5 case with the Active Cooler? Yes...kind of! If you pop the lid off the case, remove the central clear fan insert and don't use the bottom screws to secure the HAT to the Pi, it fits. The header supplied with the HAT keeps things secure enough. You can't fit the top lid section back on though. Like this:

Product Notes

  • The connection of incompatible devices (incorrect key etc) to the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ may affect compliance, result in damage to the unit, and invalidate the warranty
  • The connection of incompatible devices to the PCIe interface of a Raspberry Pi computer may affect compliance and result in damage to the unit and invalidate the warranty
