Questions & Answers

As I always do when upgrading, I've cloned my hard drive. My bios recognizes the drive and lists it as the first option, but it will not boot. I'm not sure how I'm going to get it to boot. ?

I feel compelled to respond because the information provided here is confusing. In the case of Cat22 and TB- 10 PLT, as well as anyone else who is perplexed by the letter M. NVMe is only compatible with PCIe, in terms of technology, terminology, and compatibility. Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVME) is a type of flash memory that It's called Volatile Memory Express, and it only works with PCIe, not SATA (I, II, or III). SATA is SATA, period, and even if it uses M, it is not NVMe. there are two connectors Your use of terminology creates confusion because there is no such thing as SATA NVMe or NVMe SATA; they are mutually exclusive and require different M. For each, there are two different types of connections. As a result, this adaptor, which can do both in separate M, was created. 2 slots. In response to the original question, there are a variety of reasons why it might not boot, and without more information, it would be difficult to determine why in your case. In the end, M. NVMe or SATA can be used for number two.

Is it possible to have two separate drives or does it have to be a raid?

distinct yourself

Is this something that can be put in a pci-e slot? ex1 slot?

The PHYSICAL card requires a minimum of a 4x PCIe slot, *UNLESS*! I used this card in a 1x slot with the SATA B M slot SSD and it worked perfectly fine. Unless the PCIe 1x slot has an 'open end,' which is rare. Many ASRock motherboards, as well as others, have 'open-source' software. 1x and 4x slots must come to an end.' The remaining '3x' worth of PCIe hardware simply 'hangs out in open space.' Although the NVME SSD should ideally operate in 1x PCIe mode, I can assure you that the 1x slot is sufficient for using a SATA SSD in the B M slot, as I've /done/ it with my (MS-DOS-based) system. 7673) is a motherboard with an open-source operating system. Because I only had one 16x slot and three 1x's, I had to end the 1x slot. I needed that card but only had 1x slots available, so I 'cut the notch open' on the end of the 1x slot, which worked just fine. Warning: This is not something you should do. It's very easy to damage the PCIe slot, dig gouges in the motherboard, and other such things. I DID, however, do it, and it worked for me. br>br>Again, this card only FITS into a 4x-size frame. and-larger slot; however, TECHNICALLY, if the slot is open- ended, it can still OPERATE in a 1x slot, even if the NVME device is set to 1x! br>br>Co-op-op-op-op-op-op-op While I'm here, I'll answer the following questions: The SATA (B M key slot) port will not be affected by using this card in a PCIe 1x slot, and the NVME slot will continue to function, but only in 1x mode (due to the fact that it is only given a 1x channel to use).

Is there a red light supposed to be on?

Yes, this is an indicator of work.

Excellent, no problems, and it works perfectly in the lower X16 slot of my Dell Aurora R7! The dual adapter for SATA or PCIE NVMe was installed and it works perfectly with my Dell Aurora R7
5/5

It can be plugged into an x4, x8, or x16 slot and will work. I installed it under my GPU in the lower x16 mechanical (x8 electrical) slot. With an OEM Samsung 860 Evo Pro M2 NVME PCIE 2280 drive (see photos), I'm getting 3500 read and 1850 write speeds. br>br>There are no instructions included with this product. However, setup is simple; here's what you'll need to know: br>br>The faster NVME SSD is installed in the "M Key" slot. " M" denotes that there is only one notch on the right side of the drive where you plug it in, when viewed from the manufacturer's label side. This setup does not require or benefit from the use of a SATA cable. The adapter is pre-configured to fit a 2280 length (80 mm) drive, and the connection bolt is not removable. If you have a longer or shorter M2 drive, it comes with 2x screws and 2x bolts to install and attach the drive; I've attached a photo of this product with an M Key drive. br>br>A second drive, or a slower drive with two notches, or one notch on the left-hand side is recommended. The "B Key" slot on the left side is plugged in. B alluding to the fact that there is a single notch on the left-hand side- The right-hand side of the drive, where you plug it in (the specifications state that an M B key drive with two notices will also work). If you want to connect a second drive, you'll need to use the SATA cable that comes with the computer. On the plus side, no x4 bifurcation in the BIOS is required; on the negative side, a PCIE drive is downclocked to 600 MB/s SATA speeds. br>br>Because the temperatures on my drive don't get much higher than 35 C (I use it for weekly image backups), I didn't bother with the supplied heatsink; otherwise, I'm not sure how long the rubber band will last. Holding down a heatsink is a term that refers to the purpose of the term.

It's fantastic! However, more explicit instructions are required - Read my experience with the Yateng board, which I used to install a Samsung 970 EVO PLUS 1 Tb M
5/5

In a Gen 3 x4 PCIE slot, there are two vNand SSDs. The Samsung 970 EVO PLUS performs close to its maximum specs and is faster than my 512 Gb KIOXIA (Toshiba spinoff) System drive on a Windows 10 Pro version, despite the Yateng board sharing the PCIE bus with an nVidia GTX 1070 Super x16 graphics board. A computer from the year 2004. br>br>The instructions for mounting the heat radiator on the NVME drive board are clear enough, but the silica gel does not make contact between the back of the radiator board and the front surface of the Samsung SSD board, at least when first installed, because the Samsung SSD board is not flat! Between the radiator, the gel pad, and the Samsung board, there are air gaps - What a waste of heat radiation - However, after everything was put together and into the computer, the Samsung Magician software reports that the board is operating at a normal temperature of 102 to 109 degrees Fahrenheit in a house that is 82 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Isn't the gel pad supposed to absorb water from the air and swell to make contact with it over time? br>br>The next problem was figuring out how to attach the left end of the Samsung SSD board to the Yateng PCIE board (see 1st photo attached). In the Yateng box, there are four screws but no instructions. The SSD drive is elevated off the Yateng PCIE board by the bracket on the right for plugging in the SSD NVME connectors; if you screw the SSD board flat down on the left, you risk straining or breaking the NVME receptacle on the right or stressing out the SSD drive itself. TWO knurled knobs (lower left of photo) are screwed onto the Yateng board with screws that come through the other side of the board. It turns out that if you unscrew a knob and use its indented edge to prop up the left end of the SSD board, then insert and tighten the screw from the other side of the board, the SSD board is very nicely mounted and supported over the Yateng board, same height on both ends, parallel to the Yateng board. I left the second screw/knob combination in the lower left of the Yateng board in place. That's presumably for anyone who wants to install a second NVME SSD board in the upper slot and use it as a (much slower) SATA SSD drive with the supplied SATA cable, etc. br>br>The last issue with no instructions was figuring out how to attach the mounting bracket to the Yateng board (if you open your computer and look at the space the board will go into, you'll know whether you need the large or small mounting bracket based on the size of the fill Because I have a large computer case, I need to use the larger mounting bracket. The mounting bracket attachment points GO BEHIND THE YATENG BOARD, not on the same side as the SSD is mounted, as you can see in the second photo I've attached. So, if you put the mounting bracket behind the board, the two smaller screws that come with the kit work well to clamp the Yateng board between the screw heads and the mounting bracket attachment points. br>br>Once I'd inserted the board, closed the case, reattached all the wires, and turned on my computer, I used the Windows 10 disk management utility to assign the drive a GPT partition table and format it with NTFS as a simple volume. After that, I downloaded Samsung Magician and performed some performance tests with it. The Samsung drive should be capable of reading and writing at speeds of 3,500/3,300 MB/s. The performance I got in the PCIE slot wasn't quite there (see 3rd attached photo), but it was close enough for me (I was actually moving the mouse from time to time to keep the screen from timing out, and I didn't shut down any normally running system processes, either, and, as I mentioned, I have a HUGE graphics card that uses the PCIE bus, too). The 512 Gb KIOXA system drive inserted directly into an NVME slot on the motherboard performs better, especially for random reads and writes (see 4th photo). br>br>If you're using Windows and want to know why you should use GPT partitioning instead of NTFS, this is the article for you. I came across an interesting article entitled "MBR vs. GPT: What Type of SSD Should You Get? ", according to makeuseof. You should be able to locate it using a search engine. Although there are some advantages to using MBR, GPT is usually the better option.

The company was extremely helpful and supportive
5/5

Dual M is being reviewed. 2 PCIE Adapter for SATA or PCIE NVMe SSD sold by Yateng and currently available at had to contact Yateng and found them to be extremely responsive and helpful, even with the time zone difference and the International Date Line. br>br>I had to buy an adapter to use an NVMe 2242 SSD because my motherboard was only designed for a 2280 SSD (which is longer). Because the SSD was M B Keyed, and adapters that will accept B or M B Keyed drives can be difficult to come by, I chose this drive. The majority of adapters appear to only support the M Key. I also decided that having the option of cooling was a good idea in case anything went wrong. br>br>I had to get in touch with the SSD manufacturer, who advised me to use the lowest slot (i. e. , which is closest to the adapter's connection to the PCI-Express bus. M is the designation for the e slot. 2 M Key) without the need for a SATA cable Although the product description stated that B Key and M B Key SSDs required a SATA connection for data transfer, the SSD manufacturer stated otherwise and was completely correct. br>br>In addition to the parts listed in the product description, this adapter also included the rubber bands required to attach the heat sink. They were also kind enough to include extra screws, which is great because the screws needed to secure NVMe drives are frequently missing from motherboards, despite the fact that the nut is permanently mounted to support M. 2 installation, making it difficult for a new buyer to locate the required screw. br>br>Although this adapter can accommodate a variety of SSD lengths, the heat sink is designed for a 2280. The heat sink and silica gel back will run longer if you use a shorter SSD, which isn't a problem. The width of the SSD is indicated by the first two digits, while the length is indicated by the last two digits. The 2280 SSD measures 22 millimeters wide by 80 millimeters long, while the 2242 SSD measures 22 millimeters wide by 42 millimeters long. br>br>For mounting the SSD to the adapter, one suggestion is to have a magnetized screwdriver on hand. I'm debating whether or not to install the heat sink because the screws used for SSD are quite small. br>br>I'm debating whether or not to install the heat sink because the screws used for SSD are quite small. br>br>I'm debating whether or not to install the heat sink because the screws used for SSD are quite small and thus a bit more of a hassle to get started by hand. A heat sink is not required, according to the SSD manufacturer, and the SSD temperature reported by CrystalMark after installation is in the yellow range, at 53 degrees Celsius.
