M.2 NVMe to PCIe Adapter
This LORDWORLD adapter converts an M.2 M-key NVMe slot into a PCIe X1, X4, X8 or X16 connection. It accepts 2260 and 2280 form-factor drives and includes a SATA power cable for 12V and 5V supply. The ultra-thin PCB features gold-plated contacts and a foldable flat design for signal integrity.
Builders adding PCIe cards via M.2 slot
Suitable for systems where a native PCIe slot is absent and an M.2 NVMe interface can be repurposed for expansion cards. Not suited for users who need boot-device support from the connected card or who require hot-plug capability during operation.
PCIe 3.0 link speed limit
The adapter is labelled PCIe 4.0 but the notes state it cannot support PCIe 4.0 speeds; actual throughput is limited to the host M.2 interface at up to 3.0 rates. This ceiling determines whether the connected card will perform as expected.

Questions about this item
What limits the data transfer rate when this adapter is used continuously?
The actual speed of the PCIe X4 slot depends on the M.2 interface speed of the host motherboard, and the adapter cannot support PCIe 4.0 despite backward compatibility with 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0.
How much power does the board draw and does it need extra cooling during all-day operation?
The adapter includes a 12V/5V SATA power cable that must be connected for power delivery; no active cooling or fan is mentioned in the design.
Which motherboard slot and drive sizes must I already have for this riser to work?
You need an M-key M.2 slot on the motherboard and an M.2 NVMe drive in 2260 or 2280 form factor to use this adapter.
