Dual M.2 NVMe/AHCI | PCIe 4.0 x8 or x16 slot | BifurcationThis PCIe Dual M.2 SSD adapter adds two high-performance PCIe M.2 SSDs (NVMe and AHCI) into the PCIe x8 or x16 slot of a desktop, workstation, or server. Increase 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 simultaneouslyThe absence of on-board chip results in wide system compatibility. This card requires PCIe bifurcation, which means it fits easily into any system that has an available PCIe x8 or x16 slot and supports PCIe bifurcation. Use software RAID, such as Storage Spaces ( Microsoft) or mdraid/mdadm (Linux), to build a RAID array, adding redundancy or improving system performance. Wide Compatibility 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. Adapter Card requires no software or drivers, which means it works with most operating systems; if the computer/motherboard supports bifurcation.Vented BracketsIncluded full- and low-profile vented brackets increase airflow to improve heat dissipation, helping to maintain optimal, reliable operating temperatures .The DUAL-M2-PCIE-CARD-B is backed for 2 years by StarTech.com, including free 24/5 multilingual technical support.
