GLOTRENDS M.2 NVMe to PCIe 5.0 Adapter

2-slot M.2 NVMe to PCIe 5.0 X8 adapter card - expands 2x M.2 NVMe Key M slot via a PCIe 5.0 x8 interface, delivering up to 256Gb/s bandwidth. Support 2230/2280 form factor M.2 NVMe SSDs.
Supports software RAID configuration (no hardware RAID). Easily set up via Windows/Linux/macOS. Note: Intel’s RAID-on-CPU (VROC) requires a separate license purchase.
Set the PCIe Bifurcation mode of the corresponding PCIe slot in the BIOS, support X4X4X4X4 or X4X4X8 or Hyper M.2 X16 mode (Note: Can not support X8X4X4 mode)
Important: This adapter does not support PCIe bifurcation, so a motherboard with this feature is required. Without it, only the NVMe-1 port will recognize the NVMe SSD. Before purchase, check your motherboard manual's PCIe expansion slot section or contact us directly.
Full PCIe 5.0 x8 performance (256Gbps) requires all components to support PCIe 5.0: CPU, motherboard’s PCIe slot, and M.2 NVMe SSD. Note: Intel 12th Gen and older CPUs do not support PCIe 5.0.
Enables OS booting from M.2 NVMe SSDs – requires OS reinstallation and BIOS/UEFI configuration. Note: Legacy motherboards may only support storage use (non-boot functionality).
Plug-and-play support for Windows 11/10/8/Linux/macOS (Windows 7 not supported). Note: New M.2 NVMe SSDs must be initialized and formatted before system recognition.
