Product Identity
This Argon ONE V5 expansion board adds a single M.2 NVME slot to a Raspberry Pi 5. It targets Pi owners who want faster boot times and larger storage capacity than a microSD card provides. The board installs inside the matching Argon ONE V5 case.
Installation Reality
The board connects to the Pi 5 through an included FPC impedance-controlled cable that must be routed carefully inside the case. Misaligned connectors or a loose cable are the most common causes of the drive not being detected on first boot.
Interface Limits
The NVME interface runs over the Pi 5's single PCIe lane, so sequential throughput tops out at the bus limit rather than the drive's rated speed. Random I/O still benefits from the NVME protocol, but sustained transfers will not saturate high-end 2280 drives.
Highlights
- Boot Raspberry Pi 5 from NVME M.2 drive
- High-speed storage via built-in NVME PCIe slot
- Versatile M.2 NVME support up to 2280 size
- Compatible with Argon ONE V5 case for Raspberry Pi 5

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the Argon ONE V5 NVME Expansion Board is working after installation?
The board enables booting your Raspberry Pi 5 from an NVME M.2 drive; successful boot and faster data access indicate it is functioning as intended.
What comes with the Argon ONE V5 NVME Expansion Board and what must be purchased separately?
The package includes the single M.2 NVME board and an FPC impedance-controlled cable; an M.2 NVME drive with M-Key up to 2280 size and the Argon ONE V5 case are sold separately.
Which M.2 NVME drive capacity or version should I choose for the Argon ONE V5 NVME Expansion Board?
Any M.2 NVME drive with M-Key up to 2280 size is compatible; select the capacity that matches your storage needs.
