M.2 NVME M Key SSD to PCIE X4 X8 X16 Expansion Card

Applications:

Connector 1: PCIe 3.0/4.0 x4/X8/X16
Connector 2: M.2 NVME M Key
The M.2 NVME to PCIe3.0/4.0 adapter is only fit for PCIe M.2 NVME-based M Key. Do not support B&M Key. Support PCI-e 4x 8x 16x interface. Ideal for 1U.
Help your computer work faster: M.2 NVME SSD to PCIe 3.0/4.0 adapter card for your computer, providing extremely fast read/write speeds, high-speed file access and transfers, and rapid boot times.
High Transmission Speed: Up to 32Gbps.The transfer mode is PCIe4.0×4 full speed. The SSD transmission speed of the PCI-e protocol is faster than that of the SATA protocol and HDD. The LED will light up when the SSD is connected, and the read/write LED of the SSD can flash.
The PCIe to M.2 NVMe adapter supports Windows/M-a-c/Linux OS. No driver is required. Support M.2 NVME protocol SSD. Compatible 2280/2260/2242/2230mm size M.2 NVME SSD!

Overview
M.2 NVME to PCIe 4.0 x4 x8 x16 Expansion Card for 1U Case, Supports M Key 2280,2260,2242,2230 M.2 Solid State Drives(Do not Support NGFF). 1>M.2 M KEY NVME SSD to PCIE x1 Expansion Card, Support PCIe x4 / x8 / x16 slot. 2>Supports 2280/2260/2242/2230mm size NVMe M.2 SSDs. NOT support any SATA-based M.2 SSD.NOTE: It will not fit the PCIe x1 slot. 3>Compatible with Windows, Mac & Linux OS and no driver required. 5>With advanced heat dissipation solution, a double-sided copper hole porous heat dissipation structure reduces high heat generated. 6>There are 4 fixing holes on the board, which are 22 32 mm, 22 * 42 mm, 22 * 60 mm and 22 * 80 mm. Note: The adapter only works for the M-key socket, and cannot work for the B-key or B/M-key socket. PCI-e 4.0 down compatible with PCI-e 3.0 Indicator status: it is always on when it is powered on, and flashes when reading and writing. Package Contents: 1 x M.2 M KEY NVME to PCIE4.0 Adapter Card 1 x Screwdriver 2 x Screws Pay attention: 1. You have to find out whether your mainboard is NVME-capable at all. Most old mainboards should have received BIOS updates in early 2015 that add NVME functionality. But you have to check that on the manufacturer's website 2. If your slot is PCIe 2.0 16x, the data transfer rate is limited to 2,000 MB/sec gross. So you have to be aware that if your PCIe 4.0 16x slot is available, then you will not achieve the full transmission rate. Generally maximum possible speeds for M.2 NVME SSDs: PCIe 1.0: 1GB/sec PCIe 2.0: 2GB/sec PCIe 3.0: 4GB/sec PCIe 4.0: 8GB/sec PCIe 5.0: 16GB/sec PCIe 6.0: 32GB/sec 3. Initialization on older boards: Once the NVME PCIe adapter is plugged into the board, nothing happens! The SSD is neither recognized as a boot device nor does it appear under the PCI devices under Linux, for example. But don't worry, neither the SSD nor the adapter is defective because the SSD is only recognized under Windows as soon as you open the disk management. 4. The UEFI BIOS of older mainboards probably only recognizes an NVME SSD if it has already been GPT partitioned.
