Hi,

I’ve ordered a Pironman 5 case for my Pi 5 and it currently runs on an M.2 SATA SSD in a case plugged into a USB port. Will the M.2 board in the Pironman work with a SATA SSD, or should I go and buy an NVMe SSD?

Thanks.

Sorry the Pironman 5 is not compatible with SATA SSDs, and instead is compatible with NVMe SSDs.  
Please check our tutorial link, which lists the compatible NVMe SSDs, you can choose the one that suits your needs.

Thanks for that.

I’ve ordered a Samsung Evo 970 Plus.
