<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Your SSD uses a Phison controller, which is highly likely to be incompatible.<br />
<br />
We apologize that we cannot provide a full compatibility list, as there are simply too many SSD models on the market for us to test individually.<br />
<br />
The X100x series is only a PCIe adapter and does not affect compatibility. The root issue is the compatibility between the Raspberry Pi 5 and the SSD itself.<br />
<br />
Please refer to the official Raspberry Pi documentation, together with the information below, to check compatibility on your own.<br />
----<br />
*We recommend avoiding NVMe SSDs with a Phison controller due to confirmed incompatibility.<br />
<br />
*Only M.2 NVMe SSDs are supported; M.2 SATA, PCIe AHCI, and other non-NVMe M.2 devices are not compatible.<br />
*Older NVMe drives may perform worse than newer ones due to less efficient flash media.<br />
New NVMe SSDs must be partitioned and formatted when first used with Raspberry Pi to be accessible.<br />
<br />
*SSDs with a Polaris controller also have compatibility issues. Please test with another drive; compatibility with Raspberry Pi 5 is independent of X100X series boards.<br />
<br />
*NVMe SSDs using the MAP1202 controller lack PCIe Gen 2 backward compatibility and require PCIe Gen 3 to be detected. They are not recommended.</div>Ruby
