The StarTech.com DUAL-M2-PCIE-CARD-B is a high-performance PCIe adapter designed to expand storage capabilities by allowing the installation of two M.2 PCIe SSDs into desktop, workstation, or server systems. This versatile adapter supports both NVMe and AHCI M.2 drives, including sizes 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110mm, providing an efficient solution for users seeking rapid data transfer speeds. With support for PCIe 4.0, each drive can achieve read and write speeds up to 7.8GB per second, significantly enhancing system responsiveness and data throughput. Designed without on-board chips, this card ensures wide compatibility across various motherboards that support PCIe bifurcation, making it suitable for a broad range of systems. The card is particularly effective in configurations where high-speed storage and redundancy are necessary, as it enables software RAID setups like Storage Spaces or mdraid/mdadm, allowing users to build RAID 0, RAID 1, or JBOD arrays for data redundancy or performance improvements. The included vented brackets—full and low-profile—help maintain optimal operating temperatures by facilitating better airflow and heat dissipation, ensuring reliable long-term operation. This adapter is compatible with many popular SSD models, including Samsung 980 Pro, 970 EVO, and 950 EVO, among others, although it does not support SATA-based M.2 drives. It works seamlessly with Windows, Windows Server, and Linux operating systems, provided the motherboard supports PCIe bifurcation and has an available x8 or x16 PCIe slot. Backed by a 2-year warranty and comprehensive technical support, the StarTech Dual M.2 PCIe SSD Adapter Card offers a robust solution for expanding high-speed storage in demanding computing environments.

Features:

  • High performance: Supports installing 2x PCIe M.2 SSDs (NVMe or AHCI) into a system via PCIe x8 or x16 slot, with speeds up to 7.8GBps per drive
  • Wide compatibility: Extensively tested with popular SSDs like Samsung 980 Pro, 970 EVO, and 950 EVO, supporting 2242/2260/2280/22110mm M.2 drives
  • Not compatible with SATA-based M.2 drives
  • Backwards compatibility: Compatible with PCIe 3.0 motherboards with bifurcation support and available x8 or x16 PCIe slots
  • Bifurcation required: Ensures proper lane splitting for dual drive operation
  • System compatibility: Works with Windows, Windows Server, and Linux operating systems
  • Software RAID support: Enables individual access to each SSD and allows RAID configurations for redundancy or performance
  • Vented brackets included: Full and low-profile brackets improve airflow and heat dissipation for reliable operation
