Vszerda PCI-E 4.0 M.2 to Oculink SFF-8612 Adapter for ThinkBook 16+ AMD8845

SKU CH-B6JY-7XS97

PCIe 4.0 M.2 to OCuLink SFF-8612 adapter adds an external GPU or SSD port for ThinkBook 16+ AMD 8845 laptops

  • Adds SFF-8612 port for external GPU or SSD
  • PCIe 4.0 x4 via M.2 M-key up to 32 Gbps
  • Driver-free NVMe 1.2 pass-through keeps full speed
  • Designed for 2022-2023 ThinkBook 16+ AMD 8845 only
  • 67-pin M.2 male to OCuLink SFF-8612 female adapter

Compatible Laptop Models

This adapter is built exclusively for the 2022 and 2023 ThinkBook 16 Plus laptops equipped with the AMD 8845 processor. It does not function with the 14-inch variant or any other notebook model. The 67-pin M.2 Key M male connector plugs directly into the internal slot. No drivers are required for operation.

Internal Slot Conversion

The board converts the laptop's internal M.2 Key M interface into a single OCuLink SFF-8612 female port. This allows the connection of one external device such as a graphics card or SSD using a separate cable and power source. The adapter passes PCIe 4.0 x4 signals through the NVMe protocol without altering speed or properties.

Sustained Transfer Behaviour

Data moves at up to 32 Gbps across the link while maintaining the NVMe 1.2 specification. The transparent design adds no software overhead during extended workloads. Performance remains consistent with the host system's PCIe 4.0 x4 electrical limits for the duration of the transfer.

Questions about this item

Does the M.2 male connector on this adapter fit the 67 pin M.2 Key M slot inside my ThinkBook 16+?

Yes, the adapter has a 67 pin M.2 Key M male connector that plugs directly into the M.2 slot on the 2022-2023 ThinkBook 16+ AMD8845.

What is the correct order to connect the OCuLink cable and external power before booting the laptop?

Attach the SFF-8612 OCuLink cable to the adapter first, then connect external power to your eGPU or SSD enclosure, and only then power on the ThinkBook 16+.

Will the NVMe 1.2 SSD I attach via OCuLink need any firmware updates to work through this adapter?

The adapter is transparent to the operating system and requires no drivers, so the SSD operates under its existing NVMe 1.2 firmware without extra updates.
