Green circuit board with four M.2 slots and a PCIe x16 edge connector

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK PCIe 4.0 x16 to 4-Port M.2 NVMe Adapter

SKU CH-KZE7-Q6VAG

Adds four M.2 NVMe slots through one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot, supporting 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 SSDs with bifurcation and RAID

  • Expands one PCIe 4.0 x16 slot into four M.2 NVMe ports
  • High-bandwidth design delivers fast and smooth data transmission
  • Compatible with 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 NGFF NVMe SSDs
  • Supports PCIe bifurcation and RAID for improved performance
  • Sturdy construction ensures stable operation in servers and workstations

Four M.2 NVMe ports from one x16 slot

This PCIe 4.0 expansion card turns a single x16 slot into four M.2 NVMe ports for high-capacity storage upgrades. It accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 NGFF SSDs and supports bifurcation and RAID configurations. The design targets servers and workstations needing dense, fast local storage.

Verify motherboard bifurcation and slot wiring

Confirm that your motherboard and CPU support PCIe bifurcation on the chosen x16 slot, as the card requires it to expose all four ports. Check the manual for x4/x4/x4/x4 or similar split options and ensure the slot is wired for full x16 electrical connectivity. Without bifurcation support, only one drive may be detected.

Passive cooling with direct slot power

The adapter uses a passive heatsink and draws power solely from the PCIe slot, adding no extra cables or fans. Under normal workloads the card runs silently while the heatsink dissipates heat from the controller and SSDs. Airflow across the slot area keeps temperatures stable during sustained transfers.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy anything else to install four SSDs?

The card provides four M.2 slots for 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 NVMe drives. You supply the SSDs and any mounting screws your chassis requires.

How do I decide which M.2 length to populate on this adapter?

All four slots accept 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 NVMe modules. Choose the length that matches each drive you own or plan to buy.

What does the PCIe 4.0 x16 connection mean for real-world throughput with four drives?

The x16 link splits into four x4 NVMe lanes when the platform supports bifurcation, giving each drive full PCIe 4.0 bandwidth.
