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.

Good News! The X1004 supports booting from NVME SSDs starting with bootloader version 2024-05-17 and later versions.


Geekworm PCIe to NVME Sets:

After the release of the Raspberry Pi AI Kit, we tested four PIPs: X1001, X1004, X1011, and M901. X1001, X1004, and M901 all support the hailo-8 ai ​​accelerator, but X1011 does not.

It should be noted that X1004 uses ASMedia ASM1182e PCIe switch, and X1011 uses ASM1184e, they can't support PCIe Gen 3 speed, so even though we forced to enable PCIe Gen 3.0 setting in Raspberry Pi 5, it is limited by ASMedia ASM1182e PCIe switch, and speed is still PCIe Gen 2.0 5Gbps speed. when you use an hailo-8 ai accelerator, Raspberry Pi Fundation highly recommends using PCIe 3.0 to achieve best performance with your AI Kit.

Our tentative conclusions are as follows:

  • If you need to use hailo-8 ai accelerator with high performance, it is recommended to use X1015/X1002/X1003/M901/ the official M.2 HAT+ etc. When choosing these PIP boards, you should focus on whether there is a conflict between the camera cable and the PIP board installation, and enable PCIe3.0 to use hailo-8 ai accelerator. At the same time, you need to prepare an SD card as the system disk.
  • If you don't care about the high performance brought by PCIe 3.0, then you can consider using X1004, so that you can use any socket of X1004 to install NVME SSD as the system disk, and another socket to install hailo-8 ai accelerator, so as to have both.

FAQ

Q: Why does the LED of X1001/X1004 still blinking after issuing the shutdown command poweroff?

A:Please run the folloing command:

sudo rpi-eeprom-config -e

Then Change the setting of POWER_OFF_ON_HALT from 0 to 1

Then save & reboot your rpi 5.

PS: Currently setting is 1 by default

Using the P580-V2 is there enough room to fit the Lexar 4TB NM790 SSD with Heatsink?

Sorry, we haven't tested it. The height of spacer at the bottom of P580-V2 is M2.5*6mm, and the thickness of SSD + heatsink must be less than 6mm.

I have a x1004 with a brand new rpi. The SSD was found once according to the following process, but after the SD card was re-burned due to other problems, the SSD could not be found again using the same process. My SSD is: KIOXIA G2 1TB 1. sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y 2. sudo rpi-eeprom-update 3. update bootloader to latest 4. sudo rpi-eeprom-update -a 5. Add to /boot/firmware/config.txt ``` dtparam=pciex1 dtparam=nvme ``` 6. Add to rpi-eeprom-config ``` PCIE_PROBE=1 PSU_MAX_CURRENT=5000 ```


The SSD was reformatted to FAT32, ext4, and empty space, but it still cannot be found again.

I can confirm the X1004 worked with nvme WD_BLACK 2TB SN850X. Also worth noting, I was using a USB C extension cable. I had to remove it to get sufficient power or the RPI would turn off after a few seconds.

Hi. The description says "PCIe 2.0 interface" but the features list says "Provides speedy data transfer with PCIe 2.0 5Gbps / PCIe 3.0 8Gbps". Does it support Gen 3 speeds or not?

Since X1004 is using ASMedia ASM1182e PCIe switch, it can't support PCIe Gen 3 speed, so even though we forced to turn on PCIe Gen 3.0 setting in Raspberry Pi 5, it is limited by ASMedia ASM1182e PCIe switch. speed is still PCIe Gen 2.0 speed.

Please don't be disappointed, the Raspberry Pi Foundation is not responsible for PCIe 3.0 either!

Will the Coral M2 card run on this current firmware?

Hi,We have not tested Coral M.2 SSD; but please confirm 2 things: ① The SSD interface must be NVMe M.2 Key-M or Key-B&M; ②We recommend avoiding the NVMe SSD drives which is equipped with a Phison controller due to their proven incompatibility. You can run "lspci" command to check the controller brand of the SSD.
