How to use?
Enabling PCIe
Add the following option into /boot/firmware/config.txt and reboot:
# Enable the PCIe external connector.
dtparam=pciex1
PCIe Gen 3.0
The connection is certified for Gen 2.0 speeds (5 GT/sec), but you can force it to Gen 3.0 (10 GT/sec) if you add the following lines to your /boot/firmware/config.txt.
# Enable the PCIe external connector
dtparam=pciex1
# Force Gen 3.0 speeds
dtparam=pciex1_gen=3
WARNING:
The Raspberry Pi 5 is not certified for Gen 3.0 speeds, and connections to PCIe devices at these speeds may be unstable. You should then reboot your Raspberry Pi for these settings to take effect.
Booting from PCIe
Once enabled, and after rebooting, an NVMe disk attached via the PCIe should be visible. However, your Raspberry Pi won’t try to boot from the NVMe drive. If you wish to enable boot support you will need to change the BOOT_ORDER in the bootloader configuration. Edit the EEPROM configuration by:
sudo rpi-eeprom-config --edit
and change the BOOT_ORDER line to be as below.
BOOT_ORDER=0xf416
If you are booting from a non-HAT+ device you should also add:
PCIE_PROBE=1
to the EEPROM configuration.
