Kingston NV2 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe Internal SSD | PCIe 4.0 Gen 4x4 | Up to 3500 MB/s | SNV2S/1000G

I went with the Kingston NV2 1TB because it’s a straightforward way to give the Pi 5 real desktop-style storage. In this build it becomes the boot drive, which is exactly what I want for Ubuntu Desktop in a rack. The capacity makes it easy to treat this like a small workstation instead of a toy.
