Axagon PCEM2-DC PCIe 3.0 x4 Adapter, 1x M.2 NVMe, 1x M.2 SATA With

With the PCEM2-DC , AXAGON offers an internal adapter that simultaneously connects an NVMe M.2 SSD and a SATA M.2 SSD to the PC via a PCI Express slot. This is particularly useful if the mainboard does not have a corresponding M.2 slot or if these are already occupied. The adapter enables the use of single and double-sided M.2 SSDs in x16, x8 and x4 PCIe 3.0 slots. Data from an M.2 NVMe SSD is transferred directly via the PCIe bus, for M.2 SATA SSDs there is a SATA connector that is connected to a corresponding slot.The PCI Express bus supplies the PCEM2-DCdirectly with power, so no external source is required. Thermal pads and a panel with an active fan help to better dissipate the waste heat generated by the M.2 SSDs under load. Two LED displays provide information about whether the connection exists and about the activity of the data transfer.Technical details: Dimensions: 140 x 17 x 68 mm (W x H x D) Input:Interface: PCI-Express 3.0 + Serial ATA 3.1Number of lines: 4-lane (x4)Speed (PCI-Express): 8 GB/s (bidirectional)Speed (SATA): 6 / 3 / 1.5 Gbit/s ( SATA III / SATA II / SATA I)connector: data SATA (7-pin)compatibility:PCI-Express 1.0a / 1.1 / 2.0 / 2.1 / 3.0PCIe slot: x4 / x8 / x16SATA controller: SATA I / SATA II / SATA III Output:Interface: M.2 NVMe (PCI-Express) + NGFF M.2 (SATA)Connector: 75-pin M.2 M-keyCompatibility: all NVMe M.2 SSDs / all SATA M.2 SSDs ( B key / B+M key) Supported sizes:22110 / 2280 / 2260 / 2242 / 2230Height: single / double-sided M.2 SSDsMax. hard disk capacity: unlimited Compatibility:MS Windows: 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 (all 32 and 64 bit versions)MS Windows Server: 2016 / 2012 / 2008 R2 (all 32 and 64 bit versions)Linux: Kernel 2.6.31 and higher Scope of delivery:1x PCI Express adapter with standard cover and cover with fan1x low-profile cover2x thermal padsSATA data cable (50 cm)Mounting material and screwdriverInstallation instructions
