Product Description

Troubleshooting Steps
- Check the hardware connection, make sure the FFC cable is fully inserted with right direction. (Change FFC cable to test if you have one.)
- Update EEPROM firmware: Check and upgrade the bootloader firmware to the latest version;
- Refer to Geekworm X1000 WiKi to check the SSD incompatibility List, change SSD to test.
- Enable PCIe: Must make sure to enable PCIe in the OS on the NVME SSD you are booting, instead of the OS on SD card. Too many people just enable PCIe in the OS on the SD CARD.
- Set NVME boot order;
- DON'T enable PCIe 3.0, ONLY PCIe 2.0 is supported by Raspberry Pi fundation.
- If your SSD is old and has a DOS partition, delete the DOS partition and repartition the SSD (feedback from buyer)
- Refer to the guide on Geekworm Wiki for more specific operations!!!(wiki.geekworm.com/NVMe_SSD_boot_with_the_Raspberry_Pi_5)
Note: The Raspberry Pi 5, M.2 NVME SSD, power supply is not included in the packing list.
Overview
The X1000 shield is an NVMe M2 2242 SSD PIP (PCIe Peripheral Board) for the Raspberry Pi 5 that uses the new PCIE interface of the Raspberry Pi 5 to utilise the NVME M2 SSDs for fast data transfers and ultra-fast booting.
Features
- Model: X1000
- Compatible with other HAT shield;
- FFC cable is only 30mm length.
- Supports 2230/2242 NVMe M2 SSD only.(The X1000 hardware has no limit on NVME SSD capacity, which is dependent on the Raspberry Pi OS)
- Supports installation of official active coolers
- Reserved space for POE module installation
- With 40pin header, it can automatically supply power from GPIO, avoiding the problem of insufficient power supply for ultra-large capacity SSDs.
How to Power
- Can power the X1000 shield directly from the FFC PCIe ribbon (providing maximum 5W of continuous power)
Packing List
- 1 x X1000 PCIe Peripheral Board
- 1 x PCIe FFC Cable(30mm length)
- 3 x M2.5x14.5mm F/F Spacers
- 6 x M2.5x5mm Screws
- 1 x M2x4mm Screws (to fix MVME M2 SSD)

- Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2024I'm using this on a pi5 in an argon neo 5 bred case. I had to trim the pin header to clear the lid, but otherwise it fit great and resulted in a powerhouse of a pi5.
The only issue i've faced is that I can only boot to nvme from power off. Reboot results in failure to detect the nvme. Idk if it's a sub-spec ribbon connector like others have suggested or a firmware issue on the board that conflicts with certain nvme ssd controllers as other others have suggested, but it's something to be aware of when using this expansion board.
Overall, I'm perfectly content with how my pi functions with this add-on.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2024Absolutely love it, I’ve messed around and used it as a media player and mini pc so I could mess around with various operating systems. I also added a m2 hat to expand my storage as well as speed it up.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024I bought a similar product because it would arrive a day earlier. It was OK but I was not happy with the speed and mounting. This, on the other hand, is very stable, easy to install and the hardware was perfect. The indicator lights make sense. I'm also glad I can add another hat for other stuff such as a display.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2024I tried 4 different nvme and they didn't work.
I wrote details how to fix.
Amazon didn't like it and told me to edit my review.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2024This was Super Easy to install and leaves all pinouts still available. Love It!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2024I went through a few hours of troubleshooting this, and finally gave up and bought the X1001 version instead (has the ability to go up to the 2280 drives, not just 2230 and 2242 like this X1000). Once I popped in the X1001 and one of the M.2 drives I had (512GB Kensington M.2 drive), my RPi 5 4GB booted right up.
I knocked off 3 stars because the X1000 didn't work for me, but I gave 2 stars for their Customer Service that kept trying.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2024Right out of the package. No screw down point for a 2230. Now what?.. next is to try and figure out how to mount my 2230 I have, and hope that goes well. Then test it to be able to boot from the nvme.
3.0 out of 5 starsRight out of the package. No screw down point for a 2230. Now what?.. next is to try and figure out how to mount my 2230 I have, and hope that goes well. Then test it to be able to boot from the nvme.Not a good start

- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2024In a first for the Raspberry Pi series of single-board computers, the Pi 5 exposes a PCIe connector via an optional ribbon cable. This can open up an entire new world of faster storage for the Pi (which makes the entire computing experience MUCH better as everything is snappier and more responsive, from boot up to loading an application to having multiple applications open at once), IF you have the right hardware to do so.
This board / package provides exactly what you need to add a smaller (2230 or 2242 sized versus the more typical 2280 size) NVMe SSD to your PI 5 to take advantage of that new port. Installation was easy - you merely image the new drive with your desired OS (you can also do this AFTER install if you want to copy an existing install from the MicroSD card using the onboard Pi utility to do this, but I wanted a fresh setup), insert the new drive into the provided board with the provided single retention screw (drive not included of course - I went with a 512GB NVMe PCIe v3 2242 sized drive which works fine as the Pi only really supports v2 speeds anyhow). You then install the standoffs and press the board onto the GPIO pins - I LOVE that this passes through the pins so you can still use HATs and other things that connect that way and install the ribbon cable (if you have larger fingers, it might be easier to do the ribbon cable before you attach the GPIO). Three screws through the new board and onto the standoffs keep it all secure and finish the build. If you haven't modified your Pi's boot settings from the default, the Pi 5 will automatically try to boot from the PCIe connector if there's no MicroSD card installed (so remove your MicroSD card - if you want to use both storage options, you'll have to modify the settings to tell it to find the operating system on your SSD even with a MicroSD card installed).
There is sufficient clearance to use this with the official Raspberry Pi 5 cooler (which is quite slim - and highly recommended for any real usage of the Pi 5 as it gets hot) and I was able to notice an immediate boost in how responsive the Pi 5 felt in use booting from the NVMe drive - boot up times also went down a good bit over MicroSD based usage. So if you're looking to use your Raspberry Pi for more day to day use (or things that require more storage / more responsiveness, this is a great way to take advantage of that new PCIe connector hardware. Give it a try today!
