I think Raspberry Pi made their own SSD (specifically 2230) because of Pi6. when they release Pi6 with nvme slot (which they should have done with Pi 5) they can easily bundle it and sell more, essentially redirecting the profits to their own pockets instead of other storage manufacturers.
@Level2Jeff12 сағат бұрын
I do hope they include an M.2 slot on the Pi 6, or even add one onto a Pi 500 if they ever release one. I'm sure they have prototypes, just not sure why it hasn't happened (IMO a Pi 500 with NVMe support would be a very popular product).

@@Level2Jeff I also hope Pi500 with NVMe happens soon and will be a perfect mini PC alternative if they have at least 16GB of RAM (great for Windows on ARM). The reason i think Pi6 will launch with NVMe is because they need to upgrade PCIe to gen3 x2 or x4 and cannot continue using same flimsy connector. It will be lot easier to design and install expansion hats from m.2 NVMe slot.

Pi 6, when?! I like RPis but i always have an issue with storage reliability if they're on for too long. - SD cares are too unreliable - USB devices can have too loose connections, or there is some USB related oddity - HATs i've not tried due to the very limited number of cases that accommodate them.

Further there are many people like myself that are quite willing to pay the "tax" to know that these parts are all tested and validated by the Rasp Pi foundation.

Being able to put a 512GB NVMe drive out there in the data center would be helpful.

Mouser has listings for the CM5 Case (search SC1753), heatsink (SC1752), and IO board (SC1751), but not the CM5. The case and heatsink are expected on 2024-11-20. No date listed for the IO Board, but the photo does show an m.2 slot.

I've noticed with the 2230 nvme drives that heat becomes an issue very quickly. i've had to peel the label and stick on some small heatsinks on a couple of mine.

suggestion: try out BigThreeTech Pi2? i't has Rockchip RK3566, 2GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, M.2 for another SSD (PCIe 2.1), 5G wifi, gigabit ethernet and can be powered over USB or 12-24V (screw terminal) but has only one USB 3.0

Some of those PM991a nvme ssds do not play well with Debian. (or even macos for that matter). I can't say if these have different firmware over the older PM991a nvme ssds, but GParted will not work on that particular nvme ssd without it erroring out (and a few other issues but its been a while since I've had it in my machine). I'd bet that they went with that particular ssd as its super common in the 2230 size. Also macOS issues have been largely been kernel panics which have been supposedly fixed with NVMEFix.

About HATs I have the Senshat. to be exactly i have 3 of them. Every one bought in different years and every one has different LEDs but all of them are Revision 1.0.

Oof! Wish they'd treat board revisions better then - and maybe that explains partly why they don't want to release detailed specs on the SSD...

Another solution for feet for Pi’s and other bare boards is to buy a pack of nylon standoffs to use for feet.
@Level2Jeff9 сағат бұрын
Another good option! Though nylon standoffs aren't great at stiction.

@@Level2Jeff Yeah I got them mainly to avoid component legs from scratching up the surface I was setting the board on. If you could find tiny rubber feet (or 3D print some with flexible filament) you could add more friction.

@@Level2Jeff Sure, but give me some credit. I would try to sell the TPU bumpers at first and if I saw there was a demand I'd probably make a mold and cast silicone copies for production. I wouldn't dare attempt to satisfy orders by printing one-at-a-time.

They NEED to redesign there system to stop corrupting and SSD on a power fail! Many users run headless and when the wifi config files gets toasted due to a power fail. U need to reinstall things. Even if I make the FS R/O it still gets corrupted. They need to pir a larger cap so the device can stay powered long enough to stop all SD card access and to inhibit write

I've seen enough failure videos on ssds to know the mtbf of 1.5 million hours on ANY solid state media is an overrhwelmingly generous guess and will never actually happen. they will all die and fail and it will be far sooner than a million hours.
