LORDWORLD

LORDWORLD Oculink SFF-8612 8611 to U.2 M-Key NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 and NGFF to SATA Adapter

SKU CH-2WGA-30X6V

Connects NVME M-key SSD via Oculink SFF-8611/8612 or NGFF B-key SSD via SATA, supporting 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 form factors

  • Connect NVMe M-key SSD via Oculink 8611/8612 for PCIe 3.0 x4 speed
  • Use NGFF B-key SATA SSD through 22-pin SATA interface as 2.5 inch drive replacement
  • Supports M.2 2230 2242 2260 2280 form factors for flexible storage upgrades
  • Dual-function adapter handles NVMe-to-Oculink and NGFF-to-SATA without cross-conversion
  • Not compatible with SAS Slimeline SAS or NVMe-to-SATA NGFF-to-Oculink configurations

SFF-8612/8611 Oculink adapter for NVME

This adapter connects M.2 storage to a system using either an Oculink SFF-8612 or SFF-8611 interface or a standard SATA 22-pin header. It accepts M.2 modules in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths and replaces a 2.5 inch drive bay. The card is designed for builders adding NVME or SATA SSDs without a native M.2 slot. It does not support SAS or Slimline SAS drives.

Installation constraints and common mistakes

The board fits into an internal Oculink or SATA header and holds the M.2 drive with a screw. NVME M-key SSDs only operate through the Oculink path, while NGFF B-key or B+M SATA SSDs only operate through the SATA path. Cross-connecting them — NVME to SATA or SATA to Oculink — will not work. The adapter also cannot convert between the two protocols.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your motherboard or backplane provides an SFF-8611 or SFF-8612 Oculink port for NVME drives or a free SATA 22-pin header for SATA drives. Confirm the M.2 SSD keying matches the intended path: M-key for NVME over Oculink, B-key or B+M for SATA over the SATA header. The card does not support NVME drives on SATA ports or SATA drives on Oculink ports.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the NVMe M-key SSD is recognised through the Oculink SFF-8612 link?

After fitting the SSD into the M.2 slot and connecting the SFF-8612 cable to the mainboard, power on and open BIOS or OS disk management; the drive should appear as a PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe device.

What comes in the box and which cables or drives must be sourced separately?

The adapter board with SFF-8611/8612 Oculink and SATA 22-pin connectors is included; you must supply an M.2 NVMe M-key or SATA B/B+M key SSD (2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280) and the matching Oculink or SATA cable.

Which M.2 form factors and key types does this adapter support for NVMe and SATA use?

It accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 modules; NVMe M-key SSDs run over the Oculink interface, while SATA B-key or B+M-key SSDs run over the SATA 22-pin interface — cross-mode operation is not possible.
