Introduction

The PI4-CASE-ARGON-ONE-M.2 metal case can greatly speed up the boot and storage speed of the Raspberry Pi, which is to extend the M.2 interface through the USB interface and use an external SSD as the main storage drive. In this case, the Raspberry Pi 4 can be booted through the USB interface, which greatly improves the reading and writing speed and makes the boot speed much faster than using the SD card.

How to boot Raspberry Pi 4 with SSD

1.Assemble and install the SSD into the expansion board as shown below. (This product doesn't contain M.2 SSD and Raspberry Pi, please purchase separately if necessary)

2.Connect the TF card to the PC and write the system image. After the image has finished writing, connect the SD card to the Raspberry Pi, connect the M.2 expansion board and the case, and then connect it with the Raspberry Pi4 using the USB Adapter.
