We were hoping to support hot plug functionality on an NVMe SSD. The drive form factor could be U.2 or E1.S. Both form factors support hot plug. I just want to make sure the Jetson supports it as well.

The Jetson AGX Orin platform is a high-performance AI computing device that supports various storage options, including NVMe SSDs. To answer your question, we need to examine the platform’s specifications and documentation.
The Jetson AGX Orin platform is based on the NVIDIA T234 processor and features a PCIe interface, which is commonly used for NVMe SSDs. The platform’s documentation mentions support for PCIe connections, which is a good indication that it can support NVMe SSDs.
Regarding hot plug functionality, the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s documentation does not explicitly mention support for hot plug NVMe SSDs. However, the platform’s hardware and software architecture suggest that it should be possible to support hot plug functionality.
In comparison, the Jetson Orin NX and Nano series platforms also support NVMe SSDs and have similar hardware and software architectures to the Jetson AGX Orin platform. The Jetson Orin NX and Nano series platforms have been shown to support hot plug NVMe SSDs, as demonstrated in the jetson-orin-nano-devkit-nvme platform documentation.
The jetson-orin-nano-devkit-nvme platform documentation provides examples of flashing an NVMe SSD connected to the PCIe C4 or C7 slots, which suggests that the platform supports hot plug functionality. The documentation also mentions that the NVMe SSD can be connected to either the PCIe C4 or C7 slots, which are both capable of supporting hot plug functionality.
While the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s documentation does not explicitly mention support for hot plug NVMe SSDs, the platform’s hardware and software architecture, as well as the similarities with the Jetson Orin NX and Nano series platforms, suggest that it should be possible to support hot plug functionality.
To confirm support for hot plug NVMe SSDs on the Jetson AGX Orin platform, it is recommended to consult the platform’s technical documentation and contact NVIDIA support for further clarification. Additionally, you may want to consider testing the hot plug functionality with a U2 or E1S form factor NVMe SSD to verify that it works as expected.
In summary, while the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s documentation does not explicitly mention support for hot plug NVMe SSDs, the platform’s hardware and software architecture suggest that it should be possible to support hot plug functionality. Further clarification and testing are recommended to confirm support for hot plug NVMe SSDs on the Jetson AGX Orin platform.
Here are some key points to consider:
- The Jetson AGX Orin platform supports PCIe connections, which is commonly used for NVMe SSDs.
- The platform’s documentation does not explicitly mention support for hot plug NVMe SSDs.
- The Jetson Orin NX and Nano series platforms have similar hardware and software architectures and support hot plug NVMe SSDs.
- The
jetson-orin-nano-devkit-nvmeplatform documentation provides examples of flashing an NVMe SSD connected to the PCIe C4 or C7 slots, which suggests that the platform supports hot plug functionality. - Further clarification and testing are recommended to confirm support for hot plug NVMe SSDs on the Jetson AGX Orin platform.
It is also worth noting that the Jetson AGX Orin platform is a complex system, and support for hot plug NVMe SSDs may depend on various factors, including the specific hardware configuration, software version, and usage scenario. Therefore, it is essential to consult the platform’s technical documentation and contact NVIDIA support for further clarification and guidance.
In comparison to other Jetson platforms, the Jetson AGX Orin platform has a similar architecture to the Jetson Orin NX and Nano series platforms, which suggests that it should be possible to support hot plug NVMe SSDs. However, the Jetson AGX Orin platform has a more powerful processor and more advanced features, which may affect its support for hot plug NVMe SSDs.
To support hot plug functionality on an NVMe SSD, you will need to ensure that the drive form factor is compatible with the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s PCIe slots. The U2 and E1S form factors are both supported by the platform, but you will need to verify that the specific NVMe SSD model you choose is compatible with the platform’s hardware and software.
In conclusion, while the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s documentation does not explicitly mention support for hot plug NVMe SSDs, the platform’s hardware and software architecture suggest that it should be possible to support hot plug functionality. Further clarification and testing are recommended to confirm support for hot plug NVMe SSDs on the Jetson AGX Orin platform. It is essential to consult the platform’s technical documentation and contact NVIDIA support for further guidance and clarification.
Here are some recommendations for further action:
- Consult the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s technical documentation to verify support for hot plug NVMe SSDs.
- Contact NVIDIA support for further clarification and guidance on supporting hot plug NVMe SSDs on the Jetson AGX Orin platform.
- Test the hot plug functionality with a U2 or E1S form factor NVMe SSD to verify that it works as expected.
- Verify that the specific NVMe SSD model you choose is compatible with the Jetson AGX Orin platform’s hardware and software.
- Consider consulting the
jetson-orin-nano-devkit-nvmeplatform documentation for examples of flashing an NVMe SSD connected to the PCIe C4 or C7 slots.
By following these recommendations, you should be able to determine whether the Jetson AGX Orin platform supports hot plug NVMe SSDs and ensure that your specific use case is compatible with the platform’s hardware and software.
