Review on πŸ’» Rivo PCI-E Riser PCIe M.2 PCIe SSD Adapter Card - High-Speed NVMe/AHCI Support & Wide Compatibility - 2018 Edition by Fred Maki

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great solution!

Unfortunately I found that my mainboard cannot read the MBR from the PCIe port despite this Rivo PCI-E Riser PCIe M.2 PCIe SSD to PCIe Express 3.0 x 4 adapter card, but the adapter makes memory available when using the 1TB Intel Solid State Drive (SSD) 660P series and other M.2 drives. The only problem, of course, is that the main screw is difficult to hold in place when installing an M.2 drive, so precision is required. As M.2 prices go down I will definitely be reinstalling this adapter to use the M.2 SSD as extra storage until I upgrade my motherboard. It's very well made and highly recommended, I would add that it looks very cool!
