LORDWORLD ICY Dock EXLink MB308A PCIe 4.0 x16 hard drive adapter

SKU CH-1TJZ-NMHQ1

PCIe 4.0 x16 adapter with dual SlimSAS 8i ports for four NVMe drives, redriver IC, and 256Gbps bandwidth

  • Connect four NVMe drives via 256Gbps PCIe 4.0 x16 bandwidth
  • Maintain signal integrity over long cables with integrated redriver IC
  • Ensure stable enterprise timing using 100MHz PCIe clock buffer
  • Install in PCIe 2.0 3.0 4.0 or 5.0 slots at Gen4 speed
  • Connect ICY DOCK mobile racks through validated SlimSAS 8i SFF-8654 ports

PCIe 4.0 x16 adapter for four NVMe drives

The LORDWORLD ICY Dock EXLink MB308A connects four NVMe SSDs through two SlimSAS 8i ports compliant with SFF-9402 Rev 1.1. It fits a full-height PCIe slot and works with motherboards that support PCIe bifurcation into four x4 lanes. The card is validated for use with ICY DOCK NVMe mobile racks and cables. It targets builders who need dense, high-speed NVMe storage in a single expansion slot.

Sustained signalling integrity via integrated

An on-board redriver IC maintains PCIe Gen4 signal quality over longer cable runs typical in rack or server builds. A 100MHz clock buffer keeps timing stable across all four lanes under continuous load. Total interface bandwidth reaches 256Gbps when the host provides four x4 links. The adapter will not expose all four drives on platforms that lack x4, x4, x4, x4 bifurcation support.

Passive cooling with enterprise compliance

The card uses a full-height bracket and relies on chassis airflow; no active cooler is fitted. It meets CE, UKCA, RoHS and REACH requirements for enterprise deployment. Universal slot compatibility spans PCIe 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0, though the link operates at Gen4 speeds. Builders needing active cooling or a low-profile bracket should consider other form factors.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the ICY Dock EXLink MB308A generate when running four NVMe drives continuously?

The card uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface with an integrated redriver IC and 100MHz clock buffer for signal integrity; it has no active cooling, so case airflow must handle the heat from four NVMe SSDs.

What motherboard feature is required to use all four NVMe drives with this adapter?

The motherboard must support PCIe bifurcation set to x4, x4, x4, x4 so the single x16 slot can address each of the four drives independently.

Will this adapter work in an older PCIe 3.0 x16 slot?

Yes, the card fits universal PCIe slots and is backward compatible with PCIe 2.0, 3.0 and 5.0, though it will operate at Gen4 speed when the platform supports it.
