Dual M.2 PCIe Adapter Card for NVMe/SATA SSD - Support PCIe 3.0 x16 x8 x4 for 2280 2260 2242 2230 SSD, Compatible with Windows 7 8.1 10 and MacOS

I got it to use in my server to put in an NVMe drive. I worked fine with the card, which came with both long and short brackets. The only criticism I could make would be that someone can easily get confused when securing Screw 2 by making sure that it is suspended from the top as if it were a motherboard. This slot has two rows. The picture is attached so you can get an idea of what I mean On the M you will see a small notch. The 2 card sits in the grove of the fitting, and then you screw it in from the bottom to secure it.

Used to enhance an old It comes with 1 Gigabyte AM3 MB) which we The SATA SSD performed okay, but not as well as some other SSDs. The writer writes). My card and a 250 GB Kingston NVME M were purchased at the same time. A total of two SSDs. The PC is an old one. In order to keep the costs down, I tried to keep them low. In total, less than $50 was spent on both. I have Windows 10 64-bit running on my computer. I installed the SSD and card in a PCIe 3-16x slot, and the card and SSD were easy to assemble. About 10 minutes were needed to install the program. The drivers are already installed in WIN10, so no drivers are required. My only need was to perform a few small tweaks in Windows Disk Manager and I was up and running in no time. I set a benchmark of 1 for the drive. The read speed is 6 Gigabytes per second, and the write speed is It's the highest write speed yet of 17 GB/s, so this is a great A few things have changed since the BIOS was created The hassle of modifying it to boot from the NVME SSD is not worth it. It is on this SATA SSD that the Boot OS is stored. The new drive is connected to Lightroom and the CACHE location, and now I am able to edit my photos at a decent speed. The system was having problems when it went into sleep mode, according to a review I read. For me, there was no issue at all. Combined with a cheap upgrade, I was able to extend the service life of my desktop by 2 more years.

This is just an adapter, it only connects the four PCie lanes on the M. As its title implies, all it does is distribute the data between them. This is not caused by the drivers of your motherboard, it's caused by connecting two NVMe SSDs to its four PCIe lanes. It worked smoothly for me, there were no issues. The NVMe was locked in place, however, it took me some time to figure that one out. A small hole is inside the brass nut, so you place the NVMe there, push it down, and then you insert the screw from the other side of the board to secure it. For Windows 7, you will need to install the NVMe driver/patch if you don't use Windows 10. If you use Windows 10, it might not support NVMe out of the box, and you will need to install the NVMe patch. You can't boot from an NVMe drive if you have an old motherboard (typically anything older than Z97/H97 chipsets). It is however often possible to insert NVMe drivers into your BIOS image by following a guide available online (search for "AMI bios modding NVMe"). The GA did it for me The 77- The NVME files for the GA-D3H motherboard (Nvme, NvmeSmm, NVMEINT13) can be found on the GA-D3H motherboard The H97-A It is possible to boot from the BIOS of the D3H motherboard. I can now make space by deleting IPV6 PXE stuff (Udp6Dxe etc).

The pictures and instructions were helpful when figuring out how to mount the SSD, like many other people did. 1) I bought this to work around an issue on my There is a PCIe 2 is the only interface supported by the socket. There should be a 0, not a There was no limit on speed, so 1700MB was all that could be sent. Despite installing the SSD on the adapter, I did not see it on the system. As for Bios, it did not report it. It was a new installation, so I thought that before returning it, I would check to see if Windows setup recognized it, which While in the adapter, I did a fresh install and it worked perfectly. There has been an increase in speed to.

The board I am using is an Asrock Z77 Pro3 from 2013. After upgrading the bios to the newest beta version, the computer was restarted. However, nvm drivers did not appear to be installed. It was found on Google after searching for UEFI. In order to use the tool, the NVM drivers must be ripped out from another Asrock bios and added to the image of the z77 bios. Windows 10 media tool recognizes the nvme drive and is able to install it. When flashing the bios, the installation is able to take place. Whenever you press F11, you'll see the Windows boot manager.

For the price, I find this to be a great deal. As I already have a 1 TB drive installed on my only motherboard M. I thought it might be worth a try because it only has 2 slots. As skeptical as I was about the speed, the installation did work. The only problem I had was that my CPU integrated video (I5 6600K) suddenly stopped working for some reason after installing this (my setup is an atypical one). The system on which I'm running is a little dated now, so I can't tell you what's wrong. The integrated video is not a must for me, so it wasn't a major problem.

I am using this in conjunction with a Silicon Power 2TB NVMe drive. I am satisfied with the drive's performance, so I am satisfied with the drive's performance. I have my OS installed on the 1TB drive that is built into my onboard media. Since there was no need to move it, I left it alone. The system was built in 2016, so it may seem a little outdated. With an Intel i5 6600K and 4x8GB RAM sticks, the MSI Z170A Gaming Pro Carbon is my gaming PC. Having the onboard video is not necessary for me, since I have an ASUS GTX 1650 Super GPU. Because of the lack of a 2nd HDMI port on the video card, I had previously enabled the ability to use the Intel integrated video and GTX 1650 simultaneously. The video card has only 1 HDMI, 1 DVI, and 1 DP port. It seems that when I use this m. with the integrated video from the GTX 1650, the display is very blurry. Due to a BSOD caused by the adapter board, I experienced a This was purchased at the beginning of February. The system has been operating without any issues since I turned off the video option in the BIOS. I've been running it that way for 6 months, and I have not had any problems.

The two nVME drives will be taken The two were forced to move out in order to make more room for storage Having some way to utilize the PCIe drive was the reason for the purchase of this PCIe drive holder It was a try-out drive. I was not able to use it as a boot drive on the PC that received it, as that PC did not have a recent enough BIOS to support it Here's the source The NVMe interface. The test was conducted on a PC that DOES support nVME PCIe booting. It worked there under testing conditions. Getting this card to work with your PC should not be a problem if you have some experience with Windows and BIOS. Keep in mind that you need an updated BIOS Hope you have a great year!.
