Inateck PCIe x16 to M.2 Card, 4 NVMe SSDs Supported, Built-in Cooling Fan, PCIe Bifurcation Motherboard Required, KN4338
Description
PCle to M.2 NVMe SSD adapter Inateck KN4338 PCle to M.2 NVMe SSD adapter card supports 4 M.2 NVMe SSDs at the same time. It can work with M.2 SSDs of different sizes including 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110. Note: Please check if your PC motherboard supports PCIe Bifurcation before placing orders. 1. Please review the documentation of the motherboard manufacturer to confirm if your motherboard supports PCIe Bifurcation. Please be informed that KN4338 can just recognize one of the four SSDs if your motherboard is a non- Bifurcation one. 2. If your motherboard supports PCIe Bifurcation, please make sure there are over 24 PCIe lanes in CPU so that your graphics card can reach full potential performance. 3. A x16 slot in use may not reach its theoretical bandwidth, as the real bandwidth depends on the actual number of lanes allocated to the slot. Steps of PCIe Bifurcation Setting on BIOS (e.g., ASUS X299 PRO) Please note that the steps for other computers may differ slightly. 1. Please remember the name of the PCIe slot you’re going to bifurcate/split. eg: The name of Asus X299 PRO’s PCIe slot is PCIEX16_2. 2. Power on the system and tab F2 to enter BIOS, in sequence click Advanced Mode(F7) - Advanced - CPU Storage Configuration, change PCIEX16_2 to HYPER M.2 X16 (data), and then save and restart. Premium Cooling Fan Efficient heat dissipation is ensured by the large silicone thermal pad, the heatsink shell and the fan. The built-in smart cooling fan will start to facilitate heat dissipation when drives overheat. 4-Bay Design for NVMe 4 M.2 NVMe SSDs can work simultaneously. Both M Key and B&M Key are supported. 4 Sizes of NVMe Supported Being practical and convenient, this card can work with 4 sizes of NVMe SSDs including 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110. Note: KN4338 only supports motherboards whose PCIe lanes can be bifurcated/ split. If your motherboard doesn’t support that, this card can just recognize one of the four SSDs.
Features:
- Configuration Requirement: Please check if the motherboard of your computer supports PCIe Bifurcation before placing orders (see illustration in Product Description).
