I want to open a door to GPUs, SATA and Google Coral and PCIe is the key. I have found a board that promises to offer this port for the pi5 and I have ordered it. I hope it works at least in some of those cases.
That's kinda on my to do list. I have a spare Pi5, a spare Pimoroni NVMe bottom board and a couple of M.2 to x4 PCIe adapter boards*. Just need to find the time...
FWIW, I've had no problems with PCIe some PCIe packet switches, PCIe SATA cards, and a VL805 based PCIe USB card. I've no reason to exspect those won't work with a Pi 5.
*: No, not PCIe to M.2. These go into an M.2 M key socket and have a standard PCIe slot on top.
