LORDWORLD M.2 NVMe + PCM5122 Audio HAT for Pi 5 development board

SKU CH-MHDV-2D5CH

Adds M.2 NVMe storage and 32-bit/384kHz PCM5122 audio with 3.5mm and RCA outputs to a Raspberry Pi 5 via 16-pin PCIe cable

  • Combines NVMe storage and high-resolution audio on one HAT for Pi 5
  • PCM5122 stereo DAC delivers 32-bit 384kHz playback for clean sound output
  • 5mm headphone jack plus RCA connectors provide flexible analog audio connections
  • Accepts M-Key 2230 and 2242 NVMe drives in Gen2 mode for faster boot and storage
  • Onboard EEPROM loads drivers automatically in Pi OS while dual LEDs show status

Dual NVMe Audio HAT for Pi 5

The LORDWORLD HAT combines an M.2 NVMe adapter with a PCM5122 stereo DAC on a single board that connects to the Raspberry Pi 5 PCIe port via a 16-pin cable. It targets makers who want faster storage and high-resolution analog audio for media centres, network audio players or portable recording rigs without stacking multiple HATs.

Passive thermals and silent operation

The board has no active cooling and draws power directly from the Pi, so it adds no fan noise and negligible extra heat in normal use. Dual onboard LEDs give a quick visual cue for SSD activity and audio status without requiring a separate monitoring tool.

Replaces separate SSD and audio HATs

Builders currently using a microSD card for the OS and a standalone DAC HAT can consolidate both functions here, gaining Gen2 NVMe boot support and 32-bit 384kHz playback through a 3.5mm jack or RCA pair. The jump is worthwhile when a project needs both faster storage I/O and cleaner analog output in the same chassis.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M.2 NVMe SSD onto the 16-pin PCIe cable for the Pi 5?

Connect the 16-pin PCIe cable to the Pi 5 PCIe port, mount the HAT on the GPIO header, insert the M.2 M-Key 2230 or 2242 NVMe SSD into the slot, secure it with the mounting screw, then boot; the onboard EEPROM auto-loads the driver in Pi OS.

What maintenance will the PCM5122 audio section need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required for the PCM5122 DAC; keep the 3.5 mm jack and RCA connectors free of dust and ensure the GPIO header pins stay clean for reliable I2S and I2C communication.

What is the first limit I will hit when running sustained NVMe writes on the Pi 5?

The M.2 slot operates in PCIe Gen2 mode, so sustained write throughput is capped by the Gen2 x1 link rather than the SSD itself.
