I noticed the product recently. I was attracted by the price and the name of the manufacturer - I already use several Waveshare products: three types of UPS (A, B, E) and "USB to audio" cards. After conducting an analysis, also using the producer's wiki, I decided that it is worth checking empirically what we are really dealing with. In my opinion, the Waveshare product is a direct competitor to the Raspberry Pi foundation's m.2 HAT+ module - both: - meet the requirements of the HAT+ standard introduced by the Raspberry Pi 5, - support NVME drives only in factor 2230 or 2242 - use/power the disks via GPIO, not only through the NVME tape connected to the appropriate Raspberry Pi 5 connector - no power limitation to 5 W (on 5 Volts according to Waveshare) or the current supplied to the disk to 1 Ampere (on 3.3 Volts according to another manufacturer of m.2 NVME modules for RPi 5) - both are "stakeable" according to the HAT+ specification, so in assembled projects based on the RPi 5 you can still connect two modules - a power supply (HAT+) and an end module (HAT+ or HAT). However, the reviewed Waveshare product has a few additional, in my opinion, positive 👍️ features: - has an additional hole (actually a large cutout), providing/using cooling by a standard RPi 5 fan - it is sold immediately with a goldpin connector with long pins, allowing you to connect the end module (HAT or HAT+) - in the case of the Raspberry foundation's product, you need to replace the connector with one with longer pins (instead of the one supplied with a height of x2 to x3) - recently I found information on the Internet, which I also confirmed empirically, that the RPi 5 also works with DVB-T/T2 HAT modules produced by the Raspberry Pi foundation, which was not a fact about 2 years ago (according to the experience of users described on the Internet at the time and my own). The longer pins supplied in the kit allow you to immediately connect the uHAT DVB-T/T2 Raspberry Pi to a project built using the RPi 5 - it is connected to (has its own address) I2C bus - about the advantages of functionality resulting from this in a moment - at the time of purchase, it cost 57% of the same product of the Raspberry Pi foundation (comparison at gross prices from the same seller) If you want to look for any shortcomings, so as to pick on something, it's an aesthetic detail - the tape connecting the module to the RPi 5 is a little longer, so it noticeably protrudes a bit compared to the solution from the analogous product of the Raspberry Pi foundation. The consequence of having an I2C address. On the manufacturer's wiki pages it is described that thanks to the software that allows I2C support, you can on-line read what power (on 5 Volts of power) the module consumes with the supported NVME disk. What is it needed for? Manufacturers of m.2 NVME drives on the market either write about the typical power consumed by the drive (per 3.3 V power supply) or, as Samsung usually does, even print the following parameters on the disk label: power supply 3.3V, current (maximum) e.g. 1.4 or 1.6 or 2.2 Ampere. This, of course, applies to the operation of a drive powered by 3.3, Volt in the PCIe 3.0x4 or 4.0x4 standard. I did not find, but I was looking for, information about the current consumed when the drive works in the PCIe 2.0x1 standard (as in the RPi 5), possibly not entirely recommended PCIe3.0x1. Why such information? The "fight" with the power budget in projects based on the Raspberry Pi 5 is well known to those who "put together" such projects. In addition, there are m.2 NVME modules for RPi5 on the market, which only power the drives from tape, not via GPIO. The manufacturer always provides information about the limitation of the power supply given in this way (as I wrote earlier). But how to check that a specific drive can work with the RPi 5 equipped with such a "lightweight" m.2 NVME module. Well, using the reviewed Waveshare product, reading the power consumed by the entire m.2 NVME module when writing large amounts of data (e.g. using the SMB protocol and large files). As a curiosity, I can write that the 2230 drives I have in such experiments, according to the readings from the Waveshare module, did not consume more than 0.6 Ampere, so these could work with m.2 NVME modules in the "light" version.
