==Overview==
The Q100 is an expansion board similar to [[X1000]]. It has the function of PCIE to NVME ssd and also has an attached a 1.3" 240x240 Color TFT(ST7789 chipset), The TFT can display system and SSD status information, making it ideal for use as an additional display for NAS or media systems.
 
{{PCIe to NVME Sets}}
 
==Features==
* NVMe Base PCB with M.2 Slot (M-Key NVMe SSD with 2242 sizes)
* With ACT LED Indicator(Flashing: Reading /Writing)
* With 40pin GPIO Header,it can supply power from GPIO,avoiding the problem of insuggicient power supply for ultra-large capactiy SSDs
* 1.3" 240x240 Color TFT (ST7789 chipset),The TFT can display system and SSD status information, making it ideal for use as an additional display for NAS or media systems.
* 'PCIe Pipe' Flat Flex Shielded Cable(50mm length FFC Shielded Cable),shielded cables can provide better PCIE performance, effectively solve the interference problem between PCIE and WIFI, and provide a more stable data link for SSDs.

PS: If you use the bookworm system, you can only use lgpio library, bcm2835 and wiringPi can't be installed and used.
 
'''BCM2835'''
# Run gpio -v and version 2.70 will appear, if it doesn't it means there was an installation error
</pre>
 
'''lgpio'''
# You can refer to the official website for more: https://github.com/gpiozero/lg
</pre>
 
'''Python'''
#sudo pip3 install spidev
</pre>
 
'''Download Examples'''
</pre>
 '''3. Run the demo'''
<pre>
cd python
sudo python status.py
</pre>
The results are as follows:

'''4. Auto-start when Power on'''
 
Configure the script to run automatically at startup
sudo nano /etc/rc.local
 
and ''python /home/pi/Q100/status.py&'' before '''exit 0''' line
