We’ve seen our fair share of attempts to upgrade the memory on the Raspberry Pi single-board computer (SBC), some of which have been successful. What we haven’t seen much of, though, were efforts to do this on the Raspberry Pi 5. That is, until now, when we learned that YouTube creator Handyman Dan posted a video detailing his experience.
The Raspberry Pi 5 has some significant improvements over its predecessor. Its CPU and GPU are faster; it has more MIPI and display connectors, and it has introduced a PCIe 2.0 connector. This connector allows direct communication with devices like M.2 NVMe SSD hats and other PCIe 2.0 devices.
