Product Description

Double M.2 NVMe / AHCI | PCIe 4.0 x8 or x16 Slot | Bifurcation

This Dual M.2 PCIe SSD adapter adds two high-performance PCIe M.2 SSDs (NVMe and AHCI) into the x8 or x16 PCIe slot of a desktop, workstation, or server.

Boost System Performance

Take full advantage of the fast performance and compact size of internal PCIe M.2 solid-state drives, with read and write speeds of up to 7.8 GB/s per drive.

Access Two PCIe M.2 SSDs Simultaneously

The lack of an onboard chip results in broad system compatibility. This card requires PCIe bifurcation, meaning it easily integrates into any system with an available x8 or x16 PCIe slot that supports PCIe bifurcation.

Use software RAID, such as Storage Spaces (Microsoft) or mdraid/mdadm (Linux), to build a RAID array, adding redundancy or enhancing system performance.

Great Compatibility

The PCIe M.2 NGFF adapter (M key or B+M key) supports PCIe NVMe and PCIe AHCI M.2 SSDs, including 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110mm drives. The PCIe M2 Adapter Card requires no software or drivers, meaning it works with most operating systems, provided the computer/motherboard supports bifurcation.

Ventilated Brackets

The included full-height and low-profile ventilated brackets increase airflow to improve heat dissipation, helping to maintain optimal and reliable operating temperatures.
