Raspberry Pi Launches Raspberry Pi SSD 1TB for $70

How much data can a terabyte store? TL;DR: Loads. For example, you can save a quarter of a million photos, 200,000 songs (my first MP3 player held just 40… it got awfully repetitive), 250 HD movies, or 20-30 AAA games. To facilitate your consumption of the aforementioned media, we decided you should have the option to purchase a 1 TB capacity SSD from us.

A Raspberry Pi SSD unlocks outstanding performance for I/O intensive applications on Raspberry Pi 5 and other devices, including super-fast startup when booting from SSD. It is a reliable, responsive, and high-performance PCIe Gen 3-compliant SSD capable of fast data transfer, and is available in 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB capacities. You'll need a Raspberry Pi 5-compatible M.2 adapter, such as the Raspberry Pi M.2 HAT+, to use our SSDs.
Other fun peripherals
While we're here, we thought it might be a fun idea to remind you of some of the other peripherals we manufactured for your pleasure.

Raspberry Pi Bumper
For a minimalistic yet effective layer of protection, the flexible silicone Raspberry Pi Bumper snaps onto the bottom and edges of your Raspberry Pi 5. We magicked this product up after our engineers kept trying to make their own versions of a half-case, so they could fiddle with their Raspberry Pi boards while keeping them safe from their desks at the same time.

It costs a whole $3 and might be just the solution you're looking for.

Raspberry Pi SD Cards
As well as SSDs, we also offer our official microSD cards. They are available in 32 GB, 64 GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB capacities, and come optionally pre-loaded with Raspberry Pi OS. Any one of these will optimize data transfer speeds on your Raspberry Pi computer and help ensure you get the smoothest user experience from your device.

Raspberry Pi Active Cooler
If you're putting your Raspberry Pi 5 through its paces, you might want to chill it out with a Raspberry Pi Active Cooler. It's a dedicated clip-on cooling solution for Raspberry Pi 5, combining an aluminium heatsink with a temperature-controlled blower fan to keep your Raspberry Pi 5 at a comfortable operating temperature, even under heavy loads.

Your turn
What's your favorite lesser-known Raspberry Pi product? Let us know in the comments. It doesn't have to be an official one - we love seeing all the weird and wonderful things our Approved Resellers think up.

KwadratowiczThe speeds are with IOPS are like with pci e 2.0.
You can't make any meaningful comparisons with those IOPS values alone, and IOPS implies random operations which no SSD ever comes close to PCIe speeds.

In the TPU SSD database, the other capacities are listed as nearly able to saturate the PCIe gen 3 interface in sequential reads.

I'm a little bit doumbfolded cause sellers lists 256, and 512 as pci e 2.0, and only 1tb as pci e 3.0

Sorry My bad, it's only for Poland that they state it's pcie 2.0

It's from the same seller. and other sellers in poland has cited pcie 2.0 1 lane.

I believe that may simply be a listing mistake, it's not easy to find information about some of those SSDs though

That's why I'm a little bit dumbfoulded cause raspberry pi on official site don't show what specific pcie it is, it only list it as "PCIe Gen 3-compliant"
That's why I'm curious for some tests for those ssd's :)
