Product description: Argon ONE V5 Dual M.2 NVMe - board with 2 M.2 NVMe slots for Raspberry Pi 5
The Argon ONE V5 Dual M.2 NVMe Expansion Board Only is a practical expansion board with two M.2 NVMe slots for the Raspberry Pi 5 , designed to work with the Argon ONE V5 enclosure. This board expands the mini-computer with two fast NVMe SSDs, providing significantly more data space and higher performance than a standard microSD card. It's a good solution for users who want to use the Raspberry Pi 5 as a file server, NAS system, Home Assistant platform, multimedia center, or workspace for larger data volumes.
The board is equipped with two M.2 NVMe PCIe slots , supporting M-Key drives up to 2280 in size. The manufacturer states that in this version the speed is limited to the PCIe Gen 2.0 standard, i.e. up to 500 MB/s per lane.
The kit includes the expansion board only. The Raspberry Pi 5, Argon ONE V5 case, and M.2 NVMe drives are not included.
