ADM2NVMPX4
Overview
This M2 PCIe SSD adapter enables installing one M2 PCI SSD or M2 NVMe SSD, in
42, 60, 80 or 110 mm length, into a PCIe 4 lane slot of any Desktop system or
server. This is a simple economical solution to replace a mechanical hard drive
with a low power, shock resistant and high performance M2 PCIe SSD.
For more detail of the M2 (NGFF) SSD. please visit the following link
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NGFF
The adapter can accommodate M2 PCIe SSD in length of 30, 42, 60, 80
and 110 mm.
Note: the availability of the signal to the signal pins,
including the LED drive activity signal, comes directly from the M2 PCIe SSD.
The supported signal varies with different model M2 PCIe SSD. This adapter does
not supply any of these signals.
Installing the M2 PCIe or NVMe SSD into the adapter
Features
Install M2 PCIe SSD*(or M2 NVMe)into PCIe 4-Lane slot
Support M2 PCIe (or M2 NVMe)Gen3 and PCIe Gen2 SSD in length of 30,
42, 60, 80 or 110 mm
Supports dual-sided SSD module with 1.5mm component height on the top
and bottom side
Support PCIe 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 slot
Maximum transfer rate depends on the speed of the M2 PCIe SSD and the type
of PCIe slot
Installable in standard height or low profile system (low profile bracket
included)
Replace any SATA hard drive in Desktop or server equipment with a low power
and shock resistant M2 PCIe SSD
M2 PCIe SSD can be the primary bootable device containing the OS and
applications (requires support in the system BIOS)
Industrial operating temperature: -40 C to + 80
C
OS requirement:
M2 PCIe SSD or M2 SATA SSD - OS independent. No software driver
required
M2 NVMe SSD - Supported under Windows 10, Windows 7 and Windows server 2008
R2
- Windows 10 - no driver required
- Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 require following update from
Microsoft
(https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2990941)
- All other OS, please see more information at the following web
pagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NVM_Express.
*Note:
M2 PCIe SSD is not the same as the M2 SATA SSD. M2 SATA SSD can be installed
into this adapter but will not be operable. The M2 PCIe SSD communicates via
PCIe BUS and the data throughput depends on the speed of the M2 media and the
PCIe BUS. A 4-Lane PCIe 1.0 slot has a maximum speed limit of 10 Gbps whereas a
4-Lane PCIe 3.0 slot supports a maximum speed of 40 Gbps.
NVMe SSD installation:
- BIOS in some older system may not support NVMe Express. System with UEFI
BIOS may be required. Please verify with your system manufacturer to confirm
the support of NVMe Express in the PCIe slot.
- Software driver is required for installing 2.5" NVMe U.2 SSD. You may
contact the SSD manufacturer web site to download the necessary driver for
your OS
