## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 73/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 90, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 2141, "days_push": 65, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A community-maintained compatibility database of PCI Express devices tested with Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 and Pi 5, published as a Jekyll-built GitHub Pages site. It catalogs GPUs, NICs, storage adapters, and other PCIe cards with functionality notes and driver requirements.

## Use cases
- check if a gpu works with raspberry pi cm4
- find compatible nvme adapters for pi 5
- look up pcie wifi card compatibility on arm64
- research which sata cards work on raspberry pi
- contribute pcie device test results

## When to choose
- planning a PCIe expansion for a Raspberry Pi CM4 or Pi 5
- checking driver requirements before buying a card
- contributing hardware test results to the community

## When to avoid
- you need compatibility data for non-Raspberry-Pi ARM boards
- you want an API or machine-readable dataset rather than a website

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: hardware, developer-tools, documentation
- platform: -
- tags: raspberry-pi, pcie, hardware-compatibility, cm4, pi-5, jekyll, community-database, linux, arm
