День томуPineberry Pi M.2 NVMe HatDrive! Bottom tested with a Crucial 2280 NVMe SSD on a Raspberry Pi 5. Video includes full instructions for setting up an NVMe SSD on a Pi 5 as a storage and/or system drive.
The HatDrive! In this video was purchased from the Pineberry Pi website at: pineberrypi.com/

A quick note on the EEPROM config: for boards that follow the new HAT+ standard, you will not need to either modify config.txt or the EEPROM config, it should "magically" work when you plug in the board... The HatDrive was put into production just a week or two before Raspberry Pi formally announced the HAT+ standard, so hopefully in a 2nd revision they can make their board follow it so you can avoid all that configuration work! I am fairly certain the NVMe BASE from Pimoroni and Raspberry Pi's own M.2 HAT (whenever they release it) will work that way.

A perfect video to end 2023 with. I have serious problem calling the M.2 NVMe a “HatDrive". It should be called a “BootDrive”, because it stays below the Pi and you can boot the Pi from it. :) The closeup shots are always my favorite, with or without Chris’ fingers.

@ThomasBjorseth 4 місяці тому
I think I like the Pimoroni HAB better than the Pineberry HAB, as it has a design feature that I like better than the Pineberry HAB: The NVMe is located on the overside of the board when mounted, not the underside. Having the NVMe on the overside makes it harder to cool passively through contact with a fitting case, but it appears tidier and more protected. It doesn't really matter if you place the Pi+HAB in a case anyway, but my Pis have a tendency to be naked while I work with them, and unless they end up in "production", they tend to stay naked.

It's neat to see how something like a HatDrive! can really turn a Raspberry Pi into a home computer to put in your pocket. Okay, a protective case first, THEN your pocket! As amusing as it was to watch and then rewatch two more times after the video was finished, it is a bit of a shame about the problem with SD card slot access. Regardless of that, it is a nice Pi accessory! And this was a nice video to end 2023 on. Here's to 2024. 😁
@TheOleHermit 4 місяці тому
🖐😎 I have a few RPi RPi 4 Argon One cases with USB to internal bootable SSDs, which also make the uSD unavailable. Once that bridge is crossed, there's no point in going back to uSD, except for burning different distros for testing on other devices. For that I use a uSD to USB3 adapter. Cheers to 2024. (circling back to clean up our previous thread 🙄)
@apveening 4 місяці тому
@@TheOleHermit That internal µSD is available, just not readily accessible. I also have several Argon One cases with the M.2 bottom, but I still use the µSD to boot, once a week right after the daily (nightly) backup of the µSD to the SSD.
@TheOleHermit 4 місяці тому
@@apveeningThen, you're removing the Argon One case every week and wearing out the plastic screw threads, if you haven't already? You're seriously suggesting working around that ribbon cable, with delicate connectors every week? Why? In order to save $5 on a uSD to USB3 adapter, which has a faster transfer speed than the RPi4's uSD reader, you're taking the risk of breaking the ribbon connector(s), then replacing either the RPi5 or NVMe HAB? Nightly backups on a RPi 4? How many people use a $50 SBC for collecting mission critical data? Why aren't you simply doing incremental backups of the SSD onto USB3 thumb drive(s)? You do understand that uSDs are very volatile and that SSDs have limited R/W cycles, right? Rots-a-ruck doing it your way. I'll stick to doing me, and making viable suggestions to my friends, thanks. Happy New Year.
@apveening 4 місяці тому
@@TheOleHermit "Then, you're removing the Argon One case every week and wearing out the plastic screw threads, if you haven't already?" It's been well over a year since the previous time I had to get to the µSD card on any of the five RPi4Bs I have in Argon One cases. Admittedly, The last instance was last Saturday/Sunday when one failed to come up completely after the weekly reboot. Flashing the backup from just before restored it to full working order without any further problems.
@TheOleHermit 4 місяці тому
@@apveeningOk, now I'm a bit confused and intrigued with your methodology. So, I'm trying to wrap my head around the info you've provided. "..but I still use the µSD to boot, once a week..." That implied that you normally boot from the SSD, but for some unknown reason, you need to change the boot device once a week to uSD, which is normally used to store your data amd needs to be backed up onto SSD nightly. But, now I'm thinking that your only booting from uSD, so that's where your Home folder resides by default. Apparently, some app like a data logger is constantly writing to your Home folder, 24/7. Therefore the RPi is never shutdown and the uSD is only removed to be replaced whenever it inevitably fails, right? So, the SSD is only being used as a non-bootable data drive, because your uSD soon runs out of space, right? But you still need to reboot once a week after running update && upgrade, right? If all of the above is correct, then I have 3 suggestions, from most preferred to least: #1) Boot from the SSD, instead of the uSD. Chris just demonstrated how to do that AFTER BACKING UP THE SSD'S EXISTING DATA. That automagically relocates your Home folder and data onto the SSD, eliminating the need for nightly backups, then deleting the old data on the uSD. No need for the slower, volatile uSD at all. #2) Reconfigure your data logger app to store directly onto the SSD, instead of inside your Home folder on the uSD to eliminate the need for nightly backup/deletion routine. This also increases the lifespan of your uSD. #3) Relocate your Home folder onto the SSD so that everything is being stored on the SSD, again eliminating the need for nightly backup/deletion routine. In all scenarios (including your current one), if your data is mission critical, then I suggest that you still establish a backup plan to use another large (USB) data drive to backup your SSD. I have a USB thumb drive permanently plugged into my wifi router (inside my firewall) as a NAS, available from any computer in my home where all of my important data is safely stored and then shared across all devices. Works great, especially if the local drive on any one device fails, as you've recently experienced. Admittedly, I should still have a backup plan in place for the NAS drive. My bad. Hope these suggestions help to simplify your current procedures. Best regards.

Another fascinating and informative video. I'm really impressed with the HatDrive. Yes the SD card issue is a bit of a pain, but you could circumvent it as I have on my RPI4 by using a usb reader for the the SD card. This allows me to pop cards in and out with ease and no obstructions. Running a bootloader that loads an SD card as a priority if one is present allows you to boot up different OS software with ease when you don't want to boot from the SSD. Overall this shows what amazing potential the RPI5 is developing. No wonder this is still the iconic SBC. And the value is still very good too.

I'm glad the Pi 5 has made it significantly easier to attach m.2 disks. I'd say most people won't really be using these HATs for speed specifically (though the interface and drives are much quicker than microSD cards!); it seems to be more for general stability and price-appropriate storage space. I myself will be upgrading to a Pi 5 with a 256GB M.2 PCIe 3 disk for my networking utilities server - I don't really trust my microSD card for the sustained writes and reads I put the poor thing through. Overall, a great decision to allow direct PCIe access from the Rasp Pi foundation, and another splendid video from the channel. Many thanks Chris :D

20$/euro to attach nvme, not that easy imho. They should have just put m.2 connector as some other SBCs.

You absolute right about SD and sustained writes. Access to TRIM is must have. And if you really use SD card you better use at least F2FS to prolong its life.

When I had a similar annoyance with SD cards being blocked by ribbon cables, I discovered the wonderful devices called "Micro SD extenders", you put a dummy SD card in the slot, which has a short, rubbery cable attached that leads to a cage you can enclose and lock the Micro SD card in. They work really well!

Thanks for an excellent tip, I will try that when I set up my raspberry Pi 5 and Pineberry hat

This type of accessory makes the Pi5 usable as a desktop replacement. However when you add the price of all the components you are very close to the price of an N100 mini PC. I bought a system with a 500GB drive and 16GB ram for NZ$263 where the 8GB Pi5 is NZ$145 before you add accessories. Happy new year and thanks for another excellent video.
