Match the triangle on the ribbon with the triangle on the board. This is the easiest method to find the right direction. Select your board from the list below to find detailed instructions.

We tested over 20 different drives, you can find the results here: NVMe Compatibility List.

Generally speaking: Your drive should work with the Pi 5 out of the box, if it does not please contact us for support. We'll add it to the list of incompatible drives after evaluation.

Older versions of the Raspberry Pi 5 firmware required changing the boot order and enabling PCIe support.

Right now you can just insert your empty NVMe drive, connect the board to Internet and Raspberry Pi Imager will install the OS for you. Check this page for more details

2024 revisions of our boards include support for power management from the HAT+ standard (HAT powers off/sleeps with the OS on the Pi).

If your board has outdated firmware it may not send the power enable signal to the board. Please check our tutorial in order to update your Raspberry Pi 5.

You'll need to install the driver and PyCoral. You can find a tutorial here: Configuring the Google Coral Edge TPU

This functionality is currently not supported by the firmware on the Raspberry Pi 5. We believe this will change soon, follow this GitHub issue for more details

Only board that fully supports the Dual Edge TPU is the HatAi! Dual. Hat Ai! and HatDrive! Ai will only detect a single accelerator when you connect a Dual Edge TPU.
