Game-changer for small form factor SSDs

Based on my experience, this adapter breathes new life into small form factor SSDs. The compact design and easy installation make it a breeze to use. Plus the transfer speeds are lightning fast .The only downside is that it`s a bit pricey. However, the convenience and improved performance make it worth the investment..

Great adapter for M.2 NVMe drives to U.2 interfaces (much faster than SATA)

First, it's important to understand that this is an NVMe to U.2 adapter, NOT SATA. So why U.2? For most new servers with pluggable drives, U.2 is a SATA option and can take advantage of NVMe drives for much faster speeds and access. I'm actually using this with an ASRock Rack 1U server that supports 10 U.2 drives and uses PCIe 4.0. With this configuration, I was able to sustain 7.14GB sequential reads according to CrystalDiskMark 8 (compared to the typical 0.5GB SATA speeds you typically get)…

Pros
  • Internal SSDs
Cons
  • Volume
