LORDWORLD PCI-E 3.0 x1 to M.2 M-Key NVME Adapter with Low Profile Bracket

SKU CH-GVEG-BD4VS

Adds an M-key NVMe SSD slot via a PCIe 3.0 x1 lane with low-profile bracket

  • Adds NVMe storage via a PCI-E 3.0 x1 slot
  • Includes low-profile and standard brackets for flexible fit
  • Supports M-key M.2 drives at 80, 60 and 42 mm lengths
  • Works with PCIe Gen3 and Gen2 motherboards
  • Requires Z97 or later board and Windows 10 or later

What the adapter does

This LORDWORLD card converts a single PCI Express 3.0 x1 slot into an M.2 M-key connector so you can add an NVME solid-state drive to a desktop that lacks a native M.2 socket. It supports PCIe Gen2 and Gen3 drives in 42mm, 60mm and 80mm lengths and works with motherboards from the Z97 platform onward running Windows 10 or later.

Installing the card

The package includes both a full-height bracket and a low-profile bracket so the card fits standard or slim cases without extra parts. Installation is a simple push into any free x1 slot, but the adapter only accepts M-key modules; B-key or B-plus-M-key drives will not seat or function. No driver is required beyond the operating-system NVME support already present in Windows 10.

Sustained transfer behaviour

Because the link is limited to a single PCIe 3.0 lane, sequential throughput tops out at roughly one-quarter of a full x4 NVME drive’s potential, so large sustained writes will settle at that lower ceiling. The card has no active cooling, so extended heavy I/O will be constrained by the drive’s own thermal throttling rather than by the adapter itself.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the adapter is functioning after installing an M-key NVME SSD?

The drive should appear in BIOS or Windows 10 Device Manager as a PCIe 3.0 x1 device once the card is seated in a Z97 or later motherboard.

What brackets are included and what must I supply?

An 8cm standard bracket and a low-profile bracket come in the box; the M-key NVME SSD itself is not included.

Which M.2 lengths does this card support?

It accepts M-key M.2 drives measuring 42mm, 60mm or 80mm; B-key or B/M-key modules are not compatible.
