<span class="tb_red">Most of the content of this tutorial comes from Jeff's blog: [https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2023/nvme!-ssd-boot-raspberry-pi-5 NVMe SSD boot with the Raspberry Pi 5], Thanks fo Jeff</span>

1. '''Enable PCIe''': Must make sure to '''enable PCIe in the OS on the NVME SSD you are booting''', instead of the OS on SD card. Too people just enable PCIe in the OS on the SD CARD.
'''[PS]''': The official Raspberry Pi firmware is frequently upgraded and the OS is not stable enough. It is also a challenge for us.

This tutorial<ref>Refer to [https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2023/nvme-ssd-boot-raspberry-pi-5 NVM NVMe SSD boot with the Raspberry Pi 5]</ref> describes how to configure the Raspberry Pi OS on PI 5 to get pcie pip working
== Important Notes==

==Enable PCIe==
By default the PCIe connector is not enabled. To enable it you should add the following option into <span class="tb_blue">/boot/firmware/config.txt</span> and <span class="tb_blue">reboot</span>:
Then add the following comment;
# Enable the PCIe External connector.
dtparam=pciex1_gen=3
Then DON'T forgot to reboot
You also can refer to official documentatio:[https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/raspberry-pi-5.html#enabling-pcie Enabling PCIe]
After reboot,use the lspci command to display your PCIe devices
sudo lspci
The output is as follows, note that the content of the third line depends on the NVME control you are using.

==Flash OS onto NVME SSD==
'''Only''' support Raspberry Pi OS ('''Bookworm''') version, Raspberry Pi OS bullseye or Ubuntu or Home Assistant OS is NOT supported, rfer refer to https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/
Here are a few ways to flash the OS to an NVME SSD:
The PCIe connection should work after a reboot, but your Pi won't try booting off an NVMe SSD yet. For that, you need to change the '''BOOT_ORDER''' in the Raspberry Pi's bootloader configuration:
* Use tool '''raspi-config''' to set boot order sudo raspi-configThen select '''6 Advanced Opitions''' => '''A4 Boot Order''' => '''B2 NVMe/USB Boot''' answer '''Yes''', then <code>sudo reboot</code>* Run the following command to edit the EEPROM on the Raspberry Pi 5set boot order.
sudo rpi-eeprom-config --edit
Then change the BOOT_ORDER line to the following:
'''Reboot''' your Raspberry Pi 5 to make the change take effect.
==Decrease wattage when turned off==
By default, the Raspberry Pi 5 consumes around 1W to 1.4W of power when turned off. This can be decreased by manually editing the EEPROM configuration with <mark>'''''sudo rpi-eeprom-config -e'''''</mark>. Change the settings to the following:
BOOT_UART=1
POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=1
BOOT_ORDER=0xf416
Then reboot the device with <mark>'''''sudo reboot'''''</mark>, this should drop the power consumption when powered down to around 0.01W.
