SMUGDESK PH44 4-Port M.2 NVMe PCIe X16 Hard Drive Adapter
Turns a PCIe X16 slot into four M.2 M-Key NVMe ports for high-speed storage expansion
- Expands storage with four M.2 NVMe ports from one PCIe X16 slot
- Delivers high-speed PCIe data transfer for NVMe SSDs
- Standard PCIe form factor fits desktops and workstations
- Sturdy PCB design maintains stable signal performance
- Plug-and-play operation requires no extra drivers
Four M.2 NVMe slots from one PCIe X16
The SMUGDESK PH44 adapter converts a single PCIe X16 slot into four independent M.2 M-Key ports, letting desktop and workstation users add multiple NVMe drives without extra drive bays. It targets builders who need high-capacity internal storage for media libraries, databases or virtual machines.
Standard PCIe card with plug-and-play setup
The card fits any standard PCIe X16 slot and requires no additional drivers; the operating system detects each NVMe SSD automatically. Installation fails when the motherboard BIOS does not support bifurcation or when the slot shares lanes with another device, leaving some ports invisible to the system.
PCIe X16 bifurcation support decides compatibility
The adapter only functions when the motherboard can split the X16 link into four X4 electrical connections; without that capability only the first drive will appear. Buyers who cannot enable bifurcation in their firmware cannot use all four ports.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm each of the four M.2 NVMe drives is recognised after installing the PH44 card?
After powering on, open the system BIOS or OS disk manager; all four NVMe SSDs should appear as separate devices if the card is functioning correctly.
What comes with the PH44 adapter and what must I supply myself?
The package includes the PCIe X16 expansion card only; you must provide up to four M.2 M-Key NVMe SSDs and a motherboard with a free PCIe X16 slot.
Which version of the PH44 should I choose for a desktop with a single PCIe X16 slot?
The PH44 is a single model that converts one PCIe X16 slot into four M.2 M-Key NVMe ports, so no alternative versions exist to select from.
