Axagon PCEM2-S PCIe 3.0 x16 Adapter, 1x M.2 NVMe SSD With Passive Cooling

With the PCEM2-N , AXAGON offers an internal adapter that connects an NVMe 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 PCIe 3.0 slots and does not require a bezel.The PCI Express bus powers the PCEM2-N directly, eliminating the need for an external source. A large-area heat sink made of aluminum helps to better dissipate the waste heat of the M.2 SSDs under load.Technical details: Dimensions: 103 x 8 x 40 mm (W x H x D) Input:Interface: PCI-Express 3.0Number of lines: 4-lane (x4)Speed (PCI-Express 3.0): 8 GB/s (bidirectional)Compatibility:PCI-Express 1.0a / 1.1 / 2.0 / 2.1 / 3.0PCIe slot : x16 Output:Interface: M.2 NVMe (PCI-Express) Connector: 75-pin M.2 M-Key or B+M-KeyCompatibility: all M.2 NVMe SSDs (M-Key) Supported sizes: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 aluminum housing3x thermal padsmounting material and screwdriverInstallation instructions
