Prusa Link

I was thinking of installing Prusa Link on my MK3S+.  I have never used a Raspberry Pi before.  When I look on the Prusa website it talks about using a Raspberry Pi 4, but the latest are the Pi 5.  Can I use the latest Pi 5 instead?  From what I have read there are some significant improvements in the 5 over the 4.

RE: Prusa Link

You posted this in the MK3.5 forum, so I'm guessing you have a MK3.5 and not just a standard MK3S+.

The MK3.5 has PrusaLink built-in and does not require a separate Raspberry Pi.

My bad, I have the i3MK3S+.  But I did look again at the Prusa site and it seems I do need to add the Raspberry Pi Zero W.  Would you agree?  THanks for the reply in any case.
