Simplecom NVMe and SATA M.2 SSD to PCIe x4 Expansion Card EC412v2 is a PCI Express expansion card designed to add M.2 SSD to an existing PC motherboard. This card provides two M.2 slots, offering flexible support for both NVMe or SATA based M.2 SSDs.
The M Key M.2 slot, is dedicated to PCI-E based NVMe SSD, which utilize the high-speed PCI Express interface. This allows for significantly faster data transfer rates, with speeds reaching up to 64Gbps, making it ideal for demanding applications, large file transfers, and improving system responsiveness. The B Key M.2 slot, is designed for traditional SATA M.2 SSD. This slot connects to PC via a SATA connector, supporting data transfer rates of up to 6Gbps, which is suitable for more traditional storage needs.
The expansion card offers the convenience of integrating both fast NVMe M.2 SSDs and traditional SATA M.2 SSDs simultaneously, making it an adaptable solution for upgrading and expanding storage on existing systems.
One M Key M.2 slot for NVMe M.2 SSD One B Key M.2 slot for SATA M.2 SSD PCIe x4 interface, also compatible PCIe x8 or x16 slot NVMe M.2 (M key) slot supports data transfer rate up to 64Gbps SATA M.2 (B key) slot supports data transfer rate up to 6Gbps Supports NVMe M.2 and SATA M.2 SSD simultaneously
