- Hardware requirement: 1. There is available PCI-e 5.0 x16 Slot on Mobo, backward compatible with PCIe 4.0/3.0 2. make sure the The PCIe x16 Slot is active as x16 (Some Mobo may reduces x16 to x8 when you have multiple active slot, like with a graphics card), the PCIe slot can support Bifurcation itself, and can be set as"PCI-e x4x4x4x4" in BIOS 3. All of the SSDs are M.2 PCI-e (M Key) NVMe SSD 4. CPU has enough channels to support
- Upgraded Design: 1. Adopts PCIe 5.0 specification, ensure SSD can run in full speed. 2.Designed with 0.32inch Heatsink, it will avoid SSDs working at low speed due to high Temperature, but it will not take up more space from other PCIe slots; 3. And individual LED Indicator design will show each SSD's Working Status
- [Wide Compatibility] Compatible with M.2 PCI-e NVMe SSDs in sizes:80x22mm, 60x22mm and 42x22mm, 30x22mm; Not support any M.2 (SATA-Based B+M Key) SSD; Motherboard Compatibility: Most Server and X299, X399 can support PCIe x16 Bifurcation
- [About Speed] Full PCIe 5.0 x16 performance (4x128Gbps) requires all devices support PCIe 5.0: Not only M.2 NVMe SSD, but also CPU, PCIe slot. Note: Intel 12th Gen and older CPUs do not support PCIe 5.0
- Please note: 1. This adapter does not support hardware RAID. Soft RAID can be configured via Windows (e.g., Windows 10/11 Storage Spaces) or third‑party software. For optimal compatibility in RAID configurations, using identical SSD models is recommended. 2. If the motherboard does not support PCIe x16 bifurcation, only one SSD will be recognized. If BIOS can only set X8X4X4 or X4X4X8 mode can only recognize 3 x NVMe SSDs. Please verify bifurcation support in your motherboard’s manual or on the manufacturer’s website before purchase
