GLOTRENDS PA12 M.2 PCIe Adapter for One M.2 NVMe SSD and One M.2 SATA SSD

A combo that keels! It has one of the one, and one of the other. They both work well and at full speed. No issues despite the ultra low price. There's also an indicator light on the board for the devices.

I am delighted. I have a 6 year old game computer that chugs along okay. Planning on rebuilding it again so I'm collecting "new parts" that will find their way into a new computer. I bought this PCIe Adapter card so I could give the NVMe sticks I bought a try. My dated Sabertooth board only has PCIe 2 so a couple generations of that technology has gone by. I had $15 to "gamble" with seeing what this would do. Well, it works much better than expected. I picked it up from the Post Office and literally assembled it at the bar while drinking a couple Miller Lites. So went at it slow and in no hurry... "some assembly required". I can't see all that well and I was drinking and it still went together without much problem. I have two NVMe drives and they both wouldn't go on the Adapter... both are "M" key. So yeah, it will take two drives but one has to be "B" key... *meh*. Assembled it with one PCIe3 class 3500MBs drive. Later I put it in my computer... no problem just snaps into an available PCIe slot. I had a full length "16" slot so that is where it went because it was easy to get at. You can put a smaller device in a larger PCIe slot and they work fine. Didn't show up when I fired up the computer. No panick... it was there in the Device Manager. Had to name and format it. Then shazam there it was. I moved a CIV6 game on to the new Adapter/NVMe rig and gave it a try. Amazing... feels like double the speed. I didn't not expect game play to be enhanced but it is clearly much quicker. I may put off building a new computer as this made the old machine feel brand new. Reminds me of going from a HDD to a SSD a few years back... just a new level of performance. Money well spent. You do need some fiddle skills to assemble and get the new drive into the system but nothing was "hard"... google if you get stuck.

As you can see from the photo, I put this in a Dell 5810 (has no NVMe slots) and it booted off the NVMe SSD just fine. Speeds are about what I would expect from this drive. I also used the SATA m.2 slot and it is indeed completely seperate. (ie you plug a sata cable into it) It was plug and play. It worked straight away.

I received a package where it was already opened and a part was missing, but I didn't need the missing part so it's fine for me. Otherwise 5 stars. The item works as expected, no issues.

I purchased this adapter to install a 22mm x 80mm NVMME drive. There are limited instructions to installing the drives on the adapter so be sure you know what you are doing before hand. Tiny screws for securing the drive are included in the slot cover package with the tiniest screw driver I have ever seen! Its only about an inch long so you might want to have another to use. The device has pre-installed stand offs for 22x80mm drives however, the slot cover package includes stand offs to install shorter drives. Installation of the adapter was quick and easy. Works Great! Very good read/write speeds. See image attached.

Works as it should. Speeds are slightly slower than a direct m.2 on the board, but it definitely does its job woth ease!

Everything you need to install 2 M.2 SSD's, so long as you make sure 1 is PCIe and the other is SATA. Feels well made and is performing as expected. Recommend!

Just fired up a new PC build with this card installed and it fried. I am just hoping it didn't get the two M.2 drives installed on it!

Läuft in einem Dell Poweredge r510 in Kombination mit truenas nun seit mehreren Monaten. Problemlos, günstig - so soll es sein.

Bought this for some chia plotting as well as general use for running VM's on. Worked with ESXi 7.02 (latest at time) with no extra drivers needed, showed as NVME storage controller and could use the disk as a datastore or even pass through the PCIe card to a VM (with appropriate licence) which worked flawlessly for a Windows 2016 VM Server to directly use the controller and disk which ran at full speed in the VM, 3500MB/sec read with the particular drive installed I have, as passing the hardware though - note this may not work on all hardware. Not tried to use a second disk via SATA interface, see no point in having that really, a shame you can't use both through the PCIe interface although a few other cards do offer that kind of functionality for quite a lot more. Heatsink attached though not a particularly tight fit with metal brackets so used the silicone ones, hopefully will last! For the money seems decent enough, and brought blinding NVME speeds to my server for a very low cost. RGB LED light seems to cycle through colours.

Funciona bien, pero no seáis como yo que confundí los puertos PCIe y lo he tenido que utilizar en otro ordenador.

DL160 Gen10のOSブート用に使用しています．マザーボードに生えてるSATA端子に挿してブート順変えれば簡単に起動できます．SmartArrayでのディスク確認行っていません． ＊自宅の適当サーバなので特に冗長構成や速度は考えていませんのであしからず

Très bonne performance, mais dissipateur thermique léger
