This PCIe x4 M.2 NVMe SSD Adapter is a multi-functional M.2 NGFF controller card. It supports the PCIe protocol NVMe SSDs to be connected directly to the motherboard. It also supports the SATA Protocol AHCI SSDs to be connected to the motherboard's SATA port through a SATA cable. It supports ultra-fast PCI Express 3.0 x4 lanes with transmit bandwidth up to 32GT/s. And it supports with Serial ATA v3.0 with transmit speed up to 6Gbps. Throught this adapter, you can increase the speed and performance of your computer.

If you need a simple and discreet way to expand your computer’s storage, then this card can help. It supports common M.2 SATA SSDs, as well as newer high-performance M.2 PCIe drives. Now, you have a simple and effective way to expand the storage of your computer, regardless of the M.2 drive types you are using.

When you couple this card with a PCI Express based M.2 drive, you can give your computer’s performance a noticeable speed boost. With support for PCI Express 3.0 (up to approximately 40Gbps), you can install the latest high-performance M.2 PCIe SSDs inside your computer. With faster performance, you can get more work done in less time.

This M.2 card lets you take advantage of the size and performance benefits of NGFF M.2 SSDs. M.2 drives are smaller than typical platter drives or mSATA-based SSDs, so you can install them in small form-factor PCs and servers, or in tighter areas within your computer case.
