2230 to 2242 SSD Extension Adapter

This adapter extends a 2230 M.2 socket to accept 2242 length drives. It supports both NVME and SATA protocols but does not convert between them. The bare PCB design fits devices like the Legion Go and ThinkPad X270, X280, T470, T480, L480, and T580 series. No SSD is included with the card.

Suits 2230 slots needing 2242 drives

Builders with a 2230-keyed slot who want to install a 2242 NVME or SATA SSD can use this card. It is not for users who need protocol conversion between NVME and SATA. It also does not suit systems that only accept 2230 length drives or lack the physical space for the longer card.

Protocol match decides compatibility

The adapter passes the existing signal through without translation. A 2230 NVME slot requires a 2242 NVME drive, and a 2230 SATA slot requires a 2242 SATA drive. Mixing protocols will not work. Verify the host slot protocol before purchase.

Questions about this item

What M.2 slot length must my device provide for this 2230-to-2242 adapter to fit?

The adapter plugs into a 22 mm wide by 30 mm long M.2 slot, so the host device needs a 2230-length socket.

Will a legacy SATA-based 2242 drive work in this adapter when installed in a ThinkPad X270?

Yes, the board passes SATA signals unchanged, so a 2242 SATA NGFF SSD functions in the X270 exactly as a native 2242 drive would.

How can I confirm the adapter is electrically sound after fitting a 2242 NVME drive in my Legion Go?

The drive should appear in the BIOS device list and be selectable as a boot target with no errors reported.
