## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE09857:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE09857:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Power up [your Pi 5](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-boards-kits-and-accessories.html) and [Argon ONE V3](https://core-electronics.com.au/argon-one-v3-case-for-raspberry-pi-5.html) case with an NVMe SSD using this expansion board.

This expansion board replaces the stock standard one that comes with the basic Argon One v3 Pi 5 Case, and gives you the space and functionality to connect a M.2 NVMe drive to your Pi.

With the power of an NVMe SSD, you'll have faster boot times, and much more storage than typical microSD cards.

Use the included NVMe FPC to connect to the dedicated port on the back of the Raspberry Pi.

*Note: does not work with ONE V1 or V2 cases (For the Pi 4)*

**Features:**

- **Argon ONE V3 M.2 NVME PCIE Expansion Board** further expands your Raspberry Pi 5 and Argon ONE V3.
- **Boot your Raspberry Pi 5 from an NVME M.2 Drive**.
- **Built-in HEATSINK** for your **M.2 NVME Drive**
- **Enjoy faster and higher storage** access by connecting M.2 NVME drives via the PCIe slot on the Raspberry Pi 5
- **Versatile M.2 NVME support** compatible with any M.2 NVME with M-Key up to 2280 size
- **Greater thermal management** on M.2 NVME with included aluminum heatsink specific to M.2 drive to keep it cool, efficient and working longer
- **Reliable and consistent data transfer** with included FPC impedance controlled cable
 
**M.2 NVMe Drive Compatibility:**

***Other drives may also be compatible but have not been tested yet, if you want to add one to the list, reach out and let us know!***
