## Description

Buy

Review: Really handy - Bought this to house my spare NVMe and works like a charm. Would recommend if you need a way of using if you have no spare slots left.
Review: Perfect! - The GLOTRENDS 4 x M.2 PCIe 4.0/3.0 X16 Adapter is a game-changer! Setup was easy, and it instantly improved my computer's speed and storage management. The support for 4 x M.2 NVMe SSD RAID-on-CPU is excellent and compatibility with PCIe 4.0/3.0 X16 is a bonus. Especially loved how it handled large amounts of data with ease. If you need a storage management upgrade, this is a great buy. Highly recommended!

## Features

- Dual M.2 NVMe to PCIe 4.0 X8 Adapter: By installing 2 M.2 NVMe SSDs (Support 22110/2280/2260/2242/2230 M.2 NVMe SSD) on this PCIe 4.0 X8 adapter, your computer will be able to access 2 M.2 NVMe SSDs at the same time
- Hardware Platform: Support Soft RAID in Intel/AMD platform, not support Mac Pro 5.1 (Note: To set up Intel's RAID-on-CPU (VROC), you need to purchase your license)
- Set the PCIe Bifurcation mode of the corresponding PCIe slot in the BIOS, support X4X4X4X4 or X4X4X8 or Hyper M.2 X16 mode (Note: Can not support X8X4X4 mode)
- Important: Because this adapter does not support PCIe Bifurcation, it requires a motherboard that supports PCIe Bifurcation. Otherwise, only the NVMe-1 port can recognize the NVMe SSD. Before purchasing, please check the PCIe expansion slot part of the motherboard manual on the motherboard manufacturer's website, or consult us directly
- To reach PCIe 4.0 X4 (64Gbps) full speed, the CPU and motherboard PCIe slot and PCIe M.2 SSD should all be PCIe 4.0 features (Note: PCIe 4.0 is not supported on Intel CPUs below 11th generation)
- Support OS Booting: Reinstall the OS, and set up BIOS/UEFI boot from this M.2 NVMe SSD (Note: Some motherboards are too old to support OS booting. In this case, M.2 NVMe SSDs can be used as storage disks)
- OS compatibility: Plug-and-play in Windows 11/10/8/Linux/Mac OS (Note: Not support Windows 7). The new M.2 NVMe SSD needs to be initialized and formatted before it can be recognized by the computer host.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as intended. Reason for -1 star explained in review
*by K***H on 6 May 2023*

I was apprehensive about buying this card due to the number of people saying there's "missing M.2 screws" - turns out that those people are just plain dumb 😂 the two screws in the little plastic pouch are just for mounting the card to your case. You get 3x brass grommets on the board (2 located with the M.2 slots and one on the corner of the board as a spare.) you just unscrew them from the back and the brass grommet is used to mount the M.2 drive. Reason for 4 stars, instead of 5: Overall this adapter appears to be well-made and if I had the right motherboard then I've no doubt that it would work as intended - unfortunately the instructions on this listing are poorly translated and as a result, it turns out that although my motherboard is a B450 and has Bifurcation options, it doesn't seem to have the *right kind of Bifurcation*. This means that only one of those 2 M.2 slots is recognised (M.2 Slot 1) by my motherboard. Not a big deal at the moment as my C-Drive was only a 500gb SATA-M.2 drive so I just swapped it out. Read/Write speeds of the M.2 NVME drive mounted using this adapter seem to be around the 450MB/s mark - this is obviously a lot lower than the 3500MB/s that the NVME drive is capable of but this may also just be down to my motherboard not bifurcating the PCI-E slot correctly.
