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/CE09773:1.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) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description [Raspberry Pi 5’s](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-boards-kits-and-accessories.html#category_4580) single-lane PCI Express 2.0 interface is exposed on a 16-pin, 0.5mm- pitch FPC connector; the M.2 HAT+ M Key is a mechanical adapter board that converts between this connector and a subset of the M.2 standard. It supports devices that have the M.2 M key edge connector, in the 2230 and 2242 form factors. It is capable of supplying up to 3A to connected M.2 devices. The Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification and is autodetected by the latest Raspberry Pi software/firmware. It is supplied with a 16mm stacking header and threaded spacers, so it can be fitted to a Raspberry Pi 5 with the Raspberry Pi Active Cooler in place. *Does not include SSD, we recommend Raspberry Pi Official SSDs - [512GB](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-nvme-ssd-512gb-pcie-2-0-for-raspberry-pi-5.html) , [1TB](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-ssd-1tb-2230-for-raspberry-pi-5.html) or [265GB](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-5-nvme-ssd-256gb-pcie-2-0.html)* **Specs & Compatibility Information** - Supports single-lane PCIe 2.0 interface (500 MB/s peak transfer rate) - Supports devices that use the M.2 M key edge connector - Supports devices with the 2230 or 2242 form factor - Capable of supplying up to 3A to connected M.2 devices - Includes power and activity LEDs - Conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT+ specification Supplied with ribbon cable, 16mm stacking header, threaded spacers and screws, and knurled double-flanged screw to secure and support the M.2 peripheral **Documents** - [Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ product brief](https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/m2-hat-plus/raspberry-pi-m2-hat-plus-product-brief.pdf) - [Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ assembly instructions](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/m2-hat-plus.html#installation) - [Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+ schematics](https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/m2-hat-plus/raspberry-pi-m2-hat-plus-schematics.pdf) ### Raspberry Pi Resources: - [Raspberry Pi Workshop for Beginners](https://core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-workshop-for-beginners.html) - [Access your Raspberry Pi remotely the easy way](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/how-to-remotely-access-your-pi-the-easy-way/) - [Flashing an image using the Raspberry Pi Imager](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi-imager/) - [Raspberry Pi Technical Documentation](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/) - [Compliance Information](https://pip.raspberrypi.com/categories/546-compliance) ## Guides for this product - [How to Add an SSD To Your Raspberry Pi 5 with the M.2 HAT](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/how-to-add-an-ssd-to-your-raspberry-pi-5-with-the-m.2-hat/) - [Answering Your Pi 5 Questions \| Cooling, Overclocking, Power and More](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/answering-your-pi-5-questions-cooling-overclocking-power-and-more/) - [Raspberry Pi 5 Vs Raspberry Pi 4 Model B \| Comparison & Benchmarking](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-vs-raspberry-pi-4-model-b-comparison-and-benchmarking/) - [Raspberry Pi 5 \| Review, Performance & Benchmarks](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-5-review-performance-and-benchmarks/) ## Videos for this product - [How to Add an SSD To Your Raspberry Pi 5 with the M.2 HAT](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/how-to-add-an-ssd-to-your-raspberry-pi-5-with-the-m2-hat) - [Answering Your Pi 5 Questions \| Cooling, Overclocking, Power and More](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/answering-your-pi-5-questions-cooling-overclocking-power-and-more) - [Raspberry Pi 5 Vs Raspberry Pi 4 Model B \| Comparison & Benchmarking](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/raspberry-pi-5-vs-raspberry-pi-4-model-b-comparison-benchmarking) - [Raspberry Pi 5 \| Review, Performance & Benchmarks](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/raspberry-pi-5-review-performance-benchmarks) ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/r/a/raspberry-pi-5-m2-hat.jpg)
