Argon ONE M.2 Expansion Board extends support for M.2 SATA SSDs on your Argon One Case (Both V1 and V2) to maximize the true potential speeds of your Raspberry Pi 4. You will now be able to boot via an M.2 SATA SSD for faster boot times and larger storage capacity compared to the traditional microSD Card.

To use it, simply replace the bottom of the Argon ONE Case with the expansion board, and the case can now use SSDs. It is recommended to use Raspberry Pi 4 Cases though due to the USB 3.0 ports the boards provide.

Argon ONE M.2 is UASP Supported for the Raspberry Pi 4 which means you can maximize the transfer speeds of your M.2 SSD.

This expansion board supports Key-B and Key B&M drives so it only works with SATA M.2 SSDs like the ones we stock. NVME Drives are keyed differently to show that they require a PCIe interface, so they won't work with this board!

It should also be noted that you shouldn't use an M.2 SSD with a higher power rating than around 5.5W.

If you are new to installing M.2 drives check the SSD looks like this when fitted.
