Waveshare PCIe To M.2 Adapter Board (C) for Raspberry Pi 5, Supports NVMe SSD

A microSD card is the default storage for most Pi projects, but it's genuinely slow compared to NVMe, and both read/write speed and card longevity become real concerns for any workload doing sustained storage I/O. This adapter routes the Pi 5's PCIe lane out to a standard M.2 NVMe slot, letting a build swap microSD for a proper solid-state drive with the speed and endurance that implies. The 'Board (C)' variant is one of several form factors Waveshare offers for this same core function - matching the adapter's exact mounting layout to whatever case or stacking arrangement the build uses.
