Dual M.2 PCI Express Expansion Card for SSDs with SATA and NVMe Support

Description

The PCI Express expansion card is designed to add NGFF M.2 devices such as SSDs to an existing PC motherboard. It features dual M.2 slots that support both PCI-E based M.2 devices (M key NVMe) for faster performance via the PCI-E interface at speeds of up to 32Gbps and a legacy SATA based M.2 slot (B key) for connecting to a SATA III port.

Features:

• Connects one M.2 port (M key) to a PCI-E x4 interface
• Connects a second M.2 port (B key) to a SATA 6G interface
• Supports two M.2 SSDs simultaneously
• Supports PCI-E interface (M key) at speeds of up to 32Gbps
• Supports SATA interface (B key) at speeds of up to 6Gbps
• No driver installation required

Specifications:

• Interface: PCI Express X4 / SATA 6Gbps SSD
• Interface: M.2 (NGFF)
• Module Key: B key (SATA-based) M key (PCI-E 4X-based NVMe)
• Number of Drives: 2
• Supported Type M.2 SSD: 2230 2242 2260 and 2280
• Supported Length of M.2 SSD: 30mm 42mm 60mm 80mm

Important Note:

• M key M.2 is for use with PCI-E (NVMe) SSDs only while B key M.2 is for use with SATA SSDs only.
• B key M.2 SSD requires a SATA 7 pin cable connected to the motherboard to function.
• NVMe M.2 SSD requires a compatible motherboard with an Intel 9 series chipset or higher and a Windows 8 or higher operating system. It is recommended to update the motherboard’s driver and BIOS to the latest version before installing the expansion card.
