StarTech.com DUAL-M2-PCIE-CARD-B Internal Interface Card and Adapter

Dual NVMe/AHCI M.2 | PCIe 4.0 x8 or x16 Slot | Bifurcation

This dual M.2 PCIe SSD adapter adds two high-performance M.2 PCIe (NVMe and AHCI) SSDs to the PCIe x8 or x16 slot of your 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 GBps per drive.

Access Two M.2 PCIe SSDs Simultaneously

With no onboard chip, broad system compatibility is achieved. This card requires PCIe bifurcation, meaning it integrates easily into any system with an available PCIe x8 or x16 slot that 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

The PCIe M.2 NGFF (M Key or B+M Key) adapter is compatible with PCIe NVMe and PCIe AHCI M.2 SSDs, including 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110mm drives. The PCIe M.2 Adapter Card requires no software or drivers, meaning it works with most operating systems, provided the computer/motherboard supports bifurcation.

Vented Brackets

The included full-profile and low-profile vented brackets increase airflow to improve heat dissipation, which helps maintain optimal and reliable operating temperatures.
