Green circuit board with two M.2 slots and a slim SFF-8654 connector

Vszerda

Vszerda SA-014 Dual M.2 NVME to SFF-8654 RAID controller

SKU CH-GPZQ-4HPXR

Connects two M.2 NVME drives via SFF-8654 with PCIe 3.0/4.0 and software RAID under Windows 10

  • Supports two NVME drives at full speed
  • Requires motherboard with PCIe bifurcation for dual-drive use
  • Software RAID only on Windows 10
  • High-power DC modules ensure stable operation
  • Slimline SFF-8654 connector with PCIe 3.0 4.0 support

Vszerda SA-014 Dual NVME RAID Adapter

The Vszerda SA-014 adapter connects two M.2 NVME drives to a single Slimline SFF-8654 8i interface using PCI Express 3.0 and 4.0 lanes. It operates without a hardware RAID controller, relying on Windows 10 virtual RAID or third-party software for array creation. Built-in high-power DC modules provide stable power delivery for both drives during sustained workloads. The card fits two NVME devices side by side for concurrent full-speed operation.

Builders with bifurcation-ready platforms

This card suits builders whose motherboards support PCIe lane bifurcation and who plan to manage RAID through Windows 10 or software utilities. Systems without PCIe signal splitting will only detect one attached drive, making the second slot unusable. Buyers requiring a hardware RAID controller with onboard processing or firmware-based management should look elsewhere. The adapter also does not support operating systems other than Windows 10 for its virtual RAID function.

PCIe bifurcation requirement for dual-drive

The single specification that determines compatibility is whether the host motherboard can split its PCIe lanes to expose two separate endpoints. Without lane bifurcation, the adapter will present only one NVME drive to the system regardless of how many drives are installed. This constraint is absolute and cannot be overcome by drivers, firmware updates, or software configuration. Verify platform bifurcation support before purchase.

Questions about this item

Which version of the Vszerda SA-014 should I choose for running two NVME drives at full speed?

The SA-014 is a single model that holds two NVME drives and runs both at full speed simultaneously when the motherboard splits PCIe lanes.

What does the PCIe 3.0 4.0 label mean for actual throughput on this card?

The adapter passes the motherboard's PCIe 3.0 or 4.0 lanes straight to each NVME drive, so each drive operates at the speed of the slot it is installed in.

How does the SFF-8654 8i connector limit the RAID configuration I can build?

The Slimline SFF-8654 8i link carries eight PCIe lanes from the motherboard; without lane splitting the board sees only one drive, and hardware RAID is not supported — only Windows 10 virtual RAID or third-party software RAID.
