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. How to Power Can power the X1001 shield directly from the FFC PCIe ribbon (providing maximum 5W of continuous power) Packing List 1 x X1001 V1.1 NVMe SSD Shield 1 x PCIe FFC cable(30mm length) 3 x M2.5x17mm F/F Spacers 6 x M2.5x5mm Screws 1 x M2x4mm Screws (to fix MVME M2 SSD)

• Designed as a basic PCIe expansion board for the Raspberry Pi 5, the X1001 features limited standalone hardware functionality and requires proper OS configuration, stable FFC cable connection, and compatibility between firmware and SSDs for reliable operation.
• How to Power: Power the X1001 shield directly from the FFC PCIe ribbon; Use the PD 27W power adapter for Raspberry Pi 5
• Packing List: 1 x X1001 PCIe Peripheral Board, 1x Accessories Pack; Note: not include Raspberry Pi 5, SSD, TF card or power adapter
