Ableconn PEXM2-130 Dual M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Adapter Card - PCI Express 3.0 x8 / x16 Support 2X M.2 NGFF (M-Key) PCIe NVMe SSD for Mac & PC (ASMedia ASM2824 Switch) - PCIe NVMe Adapter Dual

The Ableconn PEXM2-130 allows you to install two M.2 NGFF PCIe (AHCI or NVMe) SSD on a single Low Profile PCIe 3.0 x8 card to your PC System. Features * Connector: - 2x M-key (type 2280-D5-M) M.2 socket for M.2 NGFF PCIe based SSD - PCI Express x8 Male * Chipset: ASMedia ASM2824 PCIe 3.0 Switch * Software: - No driver installation required. - Windows 10/8, Windows Server 2012 R2 and later, Linux series, Fedora, SUSE, Ubuntu, Red Hat native drivers support both PCIe-NVMe and PCIe-AHCI * System Requirement: - An empty PCIe 3.0 or PCIe 2.0 x8, or x16 slot. * PEXM2-130 does not rely on PCIe bifurcation supported by CPU, PCH, or motherboard. It supports non-bifurcation motherboard. * PCI Express 3.0 x8 Lane Host adapter Low Profile Form Factor board with both Regular size and Low Profile bracket included * Movable M.2 NGFF stand-off and multiple plated-holes supports type 2280, 2260 and 2242 M.2. Supports M.2 NGFF 80mm, 60mm, 42mm SSDs. * Supports dual-sided M.2 SSD module with 1.5mm component height on the top and bottom side * Compliant with PCI Express 3.0 * Pin header on board for drive LED connection * Support L1 Power Management Substates with CLKREQ * Fully RoHS compliant * Made in Taiwan Note: SATA Based M.2 SSD module can NOT work with this PCIe Based Adapter Can I use it as boot drive? The motherboard BIOS must support NVMe SSD and support booting from PCIe in order to boot from a M.2 NVMe SSD on PEXM2-130. Compatibility (Incomplete List) * Samsung XP941, SM951 (AHCI or NVMe), 950/960/970 Pro Series SSDs * Kingston HyperX Predator M.2 * Plextor M6e Series M.2 SSD * Intel 600p SSD Series * WD Blue NVMe SSD Package Contents * Ableconn Dual M.2 NVMe SSDs PCIe x8 Carrier Adapter Card * 1x low profile PCIe bracket * 2x mounting screw
