  Enabling PCIe interface
  First, enable the external PCIe port on the Raspberry Pi 5. Edit /boot/firmware/config.txt and add the following at the bottom:
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo nano /boot/firmware/config.txt
 
# Enable the PCIe external connector
dtparam=pciex1



WARNING
The Raspberry Pi 5 is not certified for Gen 3.0 speeds, and connections to PCIe devices at these speeds may be unstable.
  Save and exit. In nano, you do that by hitting CTRL + X, answering Y and hitting Enter when prompted.
   
  Set PSU_MAX_CURRENT=5000 in the EEPROM config to bypass the PD negotiation and assume 5A is available.
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo rpi-eeprom-config -e
   
  Add PSU_MAX_CURRENT=5000 at the end of the file that reads like this:
 
   
  Save and exit. In nano, you do that by hitting CTRL + X, answering Y and hitting Enter when prompted.
   
  Reboot the Raspberry Pi
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo reboot
   
  Use the lspci command to display your PCIe devices
 
   pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo lspci
