Review: Works well with my Raspberry Pi 5 NAS - This PCIe two channel M.2 Pi HAT works very well with the RPi 5. It is relatively easy to install even without instructions. It came with all the screws and standoffs needed to mount the device to a RPi 5, including small knurled thumbscrews to hold the NVME drives in place. You do have to be careful when aligning the GPIO pins to the connector on the HAT, but that is true of any HAT you are installing on a Raspberry Pi. Once I figured out a mistake I had made orienting the small PCIe interface cable it came online and I was able to install the two NVME drives I had purchased for my NAS project. This HAT is compatible with the OpenMediaVault NAS software I am using, although that is not a surprise. It should be compatible with almost any software or operating system given that it comes online so easily. The price point is good, too. Overall I am pleased with this purchase.
Review: No Nonsense Drive Expansion - Very easy to install - Ubuntu recognizes the drives without headaches …

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No Nonsense Drive Expansion
*by R***E on December 3, 2025*

Very easy to install - Ubuntu recognizes the drives without headaches …

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with SSD and AI accelerator
*by Y***! on December 31, 2024*

I'm using this hat with a Samsung V-NAND SSD 970 EVO Plus 1TB and Hailo AI accelerator. It works great so far. The ribbon cable is a little short; and that makes it a bit tricky to connect. If it were a tiny bit longer, you could connect the cable first and then seat the hat. But as it is, you need to seat the hat first and then connect the cable. And there's not much wiggle room. I actually used a small pair of pliers to gently plug it in. Still, this is pretty much just a pet peeve. Overall, this has been working great, and I would definitely recommend.
