X1004 User Guide

Overview

Enhance your Raspberry Pi 5 with effortless installation and lightning-fast PCIe storage speeds!


Introducing the X1004 NVMe dual SSD shield, designed to provide a seamless and high-speed storage solution for your Raspberry Pi 5. Its sleek and compact design enables easy attachment of two full-size M.2 2280 SSDs to your Raspberry Pi 5. With its PCIe 2.0 interface, you can experience data transfer rates of up to 5Gbps, allowing you to effortlessly transfer large amounts of data within seconds.


The X1004 is specifically designed to be placed on top of the Raspberry Pi 5, similar to a traditional HAT, and it provides a 40-pin header for easy access to the GPIO. With this NVMe shield, you can still use your favorite HATs alongside it. Additionally, it is fully compatible with the Raspberry Pi's official passive cooler, ensuring efficient heat dissipation. The inclusion of mounting holes and standoffs not only protects the solid-disk drives but also effectively dissipates heat for reliable performance. The built-in LED light indicates the status of reading or writing, eliminating any guesswork.


The X1004 is an ideal storage solution for creating a home media center or building a network-attached storage (NAS) system. It allows you to store and stream your own videos, music, and digital photos within your home or even remotely across the world.

NOTE: The X1004 is designed specifically for data storage purposes and currently does not support NVMe boot with the existing firmware.
