@pimoroni.com I've just completed an awesome file and media server using your NVMe base and case. The instructions at shop.pimoroni.com/products/nvm... are foolproof so thanks for that. I don't know how often the list of NVMe SSDs is updated but FYI I had great results with a WD Blue SN580.

NVMe Base for Raspberry Pi 5

Add super-fast storage to your Raspberry Pi 5 allowing for lightning fast boots, NAS use, and snappy applications!

After some time, research, and a lot of reading schematics, along with many code examples in C/C++, Go, and Rust, I’ve finally managed to make the @pimoroni.com Tufty 2040 work with embassy-rs and embedded-graphics. It was full of challenges, especially because it uses a Parallel Bus instead of SPI.

Hey, @pimoroni.com . Look what arrived today, after a week of travel, following the Viking route to the south.
I'm very excited, but my little girl is even more so.
STICKERS!
