Device Tree • Pi5: PCIe NVME SSD works without setting dtparam=pciex1 in config.txt. Why?

Hi,

This is not an issue, just something I am curious to understand better.

I have just installed a brand new NVME SSD into my new Argon Neo 5 case using the PCIe connector. Still booting from an SD card and with a fresh install of PiOS I can see the NVME drive is recognized and shows up in GParted as /dev/nvme0n1 ready to be partitioned. I have not made any changes to the config.txt file, there is certainly no dtparam=pciex1 line added. Why is this working? :shock: My understanding is (and according to the official documentation) dtparam=pciex1 is required to activate the PCIe connector on the RPi5?

Thanks in advance.
