Vszerda Dual NVMe PCIe Adapter 22110/2280/2260/2242/2230

SKU CH-E0KX-V72YH

Adds two M‑key NVMe SSDs through one PCIe x8 slot using an ASM2812 controller that works without motherboard bifurcation

  • Add two NVMe drives using one PCIe x8 slot
  • ASM2812 chipset removes need for motherboard bifurcation
  • Each SSD runs on its own PCIe 3.1 x4 lane
  • Fits 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 form factors
  • Works in PCIe 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 slots

Dual NVMe PCIe 3.1 x8 Adapter

This adapter adds two M.2 NVMe SSDs to a motherboard through a single PCIe 3.1 x8 or x16 slot. It uses the ASMedia ASM2812 chipset so each drive receives a dedicated PCIe 3.1 x4 link without requiring motherboard bifurcation support. Builders who need extra high-speed storage on platforms with limited M.2 sockets can install two drives at once.

Upgrade From Single M.2 Slot

A board with only one M.2 connector gains a second and third NVMe drive without sacrificing the primary slot. The jump is worthwhile when the CPU or chipset provides enough PCIe 3.0, 2.0 or 1.0 lanes to feed both x4 channels and the firmware can boot from NVMe. Older mainboards that lack NVMe boot support will only see the drives as secondary storage.

Build Integration Requirements

The card needs a free PCIe x8 or x16 slot and accepts M-key NVMe modules in 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 lengths. It does not work with SATA-based B-key or B+M-key SSDs, nor with PCIe AHCI drives. Each SSD consumes its own x4 lane allocation, so the platform must supply sufficient bandwidth. Software RAID is possible, but hardware RAID is not supported.

Questions about this item

What PCIe slot size and generation does the Vszerda adapter require?

The card needs an available PCIe x8 or x16 slot and works with PCIe 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 motherboards.

Which step is most often missed when installing the adapter?

Insert each M.2 NVMe SSD at the correct 22 mm width standoff (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 or 22110) and secure it with the screw before closing the case.

When will the ASM2812 chipset need a driver update?

If Disk Management or Device Manager does not show the SSD, download the latest driver from the SSD brand's official website.
