Ideal for professionals demanding high-speed data access and scalable storage on their compact SBC. ## Description Note: The Raspberry Pi 5, M.2 NVME SSD, power supply is not included in the packing list. Overview The X1001 V1.1 shield is an NVME M2 SSD PIP (PCIe Peripheral Board) for the Raspberry Pi 5 that uses the new PCIE interface of the Raspberry Pi 5 to utilise the NVME M2 SSD for fast data transfers and ultra-fast booting. Features Model: X1001 Compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 only Minimalist design, easy to install. FFC cable is only 30mm length. Compatible with other HAT shield; Supports installation of official Pi 5 active cooler; Supports 2230/2242/2260/2280 NVME M2 ssd. Can Power the X1001 shield directly from the FPC PCIe ribbon (providing maximum 5W of continuous power) Integrated with XH2.54 5V power connector, just use it if you are using a ultra large capacity SSD if the current is not enough. PS: Maximum current for PCIe wire is 1A, and voltage is 5V. If you find that the SSD is not working properly, it is possible that the power supply of SSD is not enough, then you need to check the current requirement of your SSD to decide whether power the SSD separately. The X1001 hardware has no limit on NVME SSD capacity, which is dependent on the Raspberry Pi OS.

PCIe Gen 3 support depends on both the Raspberry Pi 5 and the chip on the PIP board. Models such as X1004, X1011, and X1005 do not support Gen 3 speed. **Q: Why is the SSD recognized but not bootable?** A: A: The method of flashing OS to NVME SSD may be problematic. B: The SSD used may be incompatible. Please replace it with other brand SSD. **Q: What power supply is required for X1001?** A: The X1001 is powered directly through the PCIe FFC ribbon cable. For stable operation, use the Raspberry Pi 5 PD 27W USB-C Power Supply (5.1V/5A). Note: Standard phone chargers will not provide sufficient power for NVMe SSDs. ## Frequently Bought Together - Geekworm X1001 PCIe to M.2 HAT Key-M NVMe SSD PIP PCIe Peripheral Board for Raspberry Pi 5 Support M.2 2230/2242/2260/2280 SSD - Raspberry Pi 5 8GB - Geekworm Active Cooler H505 for Raspberry Pi 5, Aluminum Heatsink with Blower PWM Fan --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/638627748-geekworm-x1001-pcie-m-2-key-m-nvme-ssd-pip](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/638627748-geekworm-x1001-pcie-m-2-key-m-nvme-ssd-pip) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
