Question about Piroman 5 and the Pi5 and Pi5 NVMe PIP (PCIe Peripheral Board)

Does it support the older M.2 SATA SSDs (with B & M key edge connector) or does it only support M.2 NVMe SSD

They’re naked PCIe interfaces, without SATA controllers, so they only work with NVMe M.2’s. SATA M.2’s won’t work.

Along with the Pironman 5 case, I ordered the Pi 5 card with 8 GB RAM and the 1 TB Lexmark M.2 2280 card which makes my Pironman wickedly fast. I ordered the Hailo AI Kit in that order, but I think I’ll put it in the Pironman 5-MAX which is in the mail right now. It will have a Pi 5 card with 16 GB RAM and in the other PCIe slot a Lexar 512 GB RAM card. Can’t wait to do some edge computing.

The OLED display in the MAX unit is advertised as a momentary display. Tapping the case lightly will turn it back on. I still have to load all the software and utilities on mine. It did turn on at power-up and display the desktop so the build was successful.

Thanks so much for the info. I did figure this out almost right after I posted. Do you know a way to disable this feature so that the display stays on?

The Piromman5 Max case is designed with a sleep function to extend the OLED screen’s lifespan. By default, the sleep timeout is set to 5 seconds.

A cool feature: The Max version includes a vibration switch—just tap the case to wake up the OLED screen! Give it a try.

To adjust the sleep timeout, run these commands:
sudo pironman5 -os 60
sudo systemctl restart pironman5.service

Customize the value to your preference!
