Hey guys,
Don't know if anyone can help me here, i've just ordered the m.2 expansion for my Argon Pi4 case, not set anything up yet.
I know the usual route would be Pi imager to the micro sd via usb/card reader, but I don't have a m.2 to usb external adapter and would rather just do it directly than doing it to micro sd, then copying it over. (You have to remove the case to then remove the micro sd etc and just make my life a tiny bit easier as I want to use the SD card in my pi zero.)
However, with the expansion board, it runs the m.2 at USB 3.0, does anyone know if this expansion board, can literally act as an adapter? So can I just put the m.2 into the slot, then use a usb cable into my desktop to then run the imager to install Ubuntu on it?
