Review on M 2 Adapter Aluminum Heatsink Solution by Bianca Campbell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Some assembly required

So I bought this little bug for my Dell t30 server as Dell in their infinite wisdom sent out a BIOS update months ago that disabled onboard m.2 and I had to add m.2 scratch drive so my plex server has a slightly faster device to transcode. Fast forward to unboxing day. Not a single piece of this thing was assembled, okay, no big deal right? I'm just very picky about my time, but this information horse has moved forward. Many small screws and a few selected words later and the thing was ready to go. Plugging this thing into my server was easy enough, and booting into Windows Server 2019 and managing disks to mount and format the new m.2 onboard the new PCIe controller went smoothly. a problem, if somewhat disconcerting, when you open the box and find every detail in its own pocket.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Style 90
