  • Adds NVMe storage to a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot
  • Supports M.2 2230 2242 2260 2280 form factors
  • 18-20 cm cable allows flexible vertical mounting
  • Driver-free operation keeps speeds unchanged
  • Requires Z97 or later motherboard with Windows 10

Adapter for M-key NVMe SSDs

This vertical adapter connects an M-key NVMe SSD to a PCIe 3.0 x1 slot using an included 18-20cm extension cable. It supports M.2 card lengths of 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280. The device performs a transparent form conversion without altering drive speed or properties. It is intended for builders adding NVMe storage to a system with a free x1 slot.

Installation and driverless operation

The adapter requires no software drivers and is transparent to the operating system once installed. The vertical orientation and flexible cable allow placement in tight chassis areas where a horizontal card would not fit. Builders must ensure the motherboard is Z97 or later and running Windows 10 or later for the adapter to function. Older chipsets or operating systems will not meet the system requirement.

PCIe 3.0 x1 interface limitation

The single specification that decides suitability is the PCIe 3.0 x1 host interface, which caps maximum throughput to one lane of bandwidth. Drives capable of higher lane counts will operate at reduced speed. This adapter is not for users who need full x4 NVMe performance or who lack a Z97-or-newer motherboard with Windows 10 or later.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the adapter is functioning correctly after installing an NVME SSD?

The adapter is transparent to the operating system and requires no drivers. After installation, confirm the NVME SSD appears in the BIOS and Windows 10 or later Device Manager with its expected capacity and speed.

What comes in the box and what must I supply myself?

The package includes the vertical M-key adapter board and an 18-20cm PCIe 3.0 x1 male-to-female extension cable. You must provide a compatible M.2 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280 NVME or AHCI SSD and a motherboard with a free PCIe x1 slot.

Which M.2 form factors does this adapter accept?

The adapter supports M-key M.2 cards in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. Choose the length that matches your SSD; all four sizes fit the same M-key connector on the board.
