4-Port SFF-8643 Adapter Card
This adapter converts a single PCIe 4.0 x16 slot into four SFF-8643 connectors. It is designed for builders adding U.2 storage to a PC or server that lacks native support. The card is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 systems. A regular and a low-profile bracket are included for flexible installation.
Suits bifurcation-capable platforms
The card requires a motherboard with PCIe bifurcation support to expose all four ports. Without that feature, only the first port will be recognised by the system. It is not suitable for platforms that cannot split an x16 link into four x4 lanes. A separate SFF-8643 to SFF-8639 cable is needed for each U.2 drive.
No PCIe bifurcation function
This model does not perform PCIe bifurcation on the card itself. It relies entirely on the host platform to divide the upstream x16 bandwidth into four x4 links. Each SFF-8643 port operates at PCIe 4.0 x4 speed when the host provides bifurcation. Cross-platform plug-and-play operation supports Windows 11, 10, 8, Linux, and macOS.

Questions about this item
How much power does the Vszerda SF04 adapter itself draw when four U.2 drives are running continuously?
The adapter is a passive PCB with no active components, so its own draw is negligible; total system power will be determined by the four U.2 SSDs you install.
What must my motherboard provide for all four SFF-8643 ports to be recognised?
A PCIe 4.0 x16 slot and BIOS support for PCIe bifurcation into four x4 links; without bifurcation only the first port will appear.
Will the card work in an older PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and still present four ports?
Yes, the adapter is backward-compatible with PCIe 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0, but bifurcation must still be supported by the motherboard for all four ports to be visible.
