Inline PCIe x1 Interface Card to M.2 NVMe SSD Adapter for Key M/B+M SSD Formats 2230-2280 Includes Heatsink and Accessories 76619H

The InLine PCIe x1 to M.2 Key M interface card allows easy and fast integration of NVMe SSDs into existing PC or server systems. The adapter is designed for professional applications and ambitious users who don't want to sacrifice modern NVMe performance - even if the motherboard doesn't have its own M.2 slot. The card supports SSDs with M.2-Key-M and B+M key, provided they use the PCIe NVMe protocol. SATA SSDs or PCIe x2 solutions with B-key are deliberately not supported to ensure maximum performance with maximum compatibility. The flexible inclusion of SSDs in form factors 2230 to 2280 allows the use of a wide range of modules - from compact industrial use to high-performance desktop retrofitting. An additional highlight: the power supply is completely via the PCIe bus. This eliminates the need for external wiring. The mechanical design allows the use in different PCIe slots - from x1 to x16. The included components such as screwdriver, screw and passive heat sink make it particularly convenient to set up. With support for the latest versions of Windows and Linux, the adapter is versatile - for example in workstations, test systems or as a fast storage expansion. The InLine PCIe x1 interface card stands for reliability, ease of use and high data rates - in a compact format.
