Add two Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF) M.2 SATA SSDs to your computer through PCI Express\n\n This M.2 SSD controller card lets you install two M.2 SATA solid-state drives (SSD) into your PC through PCI Express. You can mount virtually any M.2 drive directly to the card, giving you a convenient & discreet way to improve your computer system performance. Plus, the card is a vital computer add-on if you need to recover data from an existing M.2 drive, or for expanding your overall internal storage.\n\n Leverage the speed & size of M.2 drives\n\n This M.2 controller card lets you take full advantage of the performance & size benefits of NGFF (Next Generation Form Factor) SSDs. M.2 drives are smaller than typical platter drives or m SATA-based SSDs, so you can install them in tighter areas within your computer case. By freeing up space within your computer, you&153;ll also have more room for additional hardware upgrades.\n\n When you couple the card with an M.2 drive, you can give your computer&153;s performance a noticeable speed boost, enabling you to replace your platter drive with a faster M.2 SATA III (6 Gbps) solid-state drive. By installing your operating system on the M.2 drive, you'll have faster access to the files you commonly use, & you can continue to use your higher-capacity platter HDD for bulk storage.\n\n Rest assured, with simple & cost-effective data recovery\n\n Due to their performance & size advantages, M.2 drives are commonly used in laptops. If your laptop has failed but its M.2 drive is functional, then this card can help with data recovery. Once the M.2 drive is installed & the data recovery is complete, you can continue to use the drive for storage & backup purposes.\n\n Wide compatibility\n\n You can also rest assured that your M.2 SATA drives are compatible with the card. It supports the most common drive sizes, including 22110, 2280, 2260, 2242 & 2230.\n\n The M.2 controller provides additional installation flexibility with a dual-profile design that fits standard or low-profile cases, so it&153;s the perfect solution for small form-factor or full-sized computers.\n\n Get up & running quickly\n\n This M.2 SSD controller card is easy to install, with native OS support & no additional drivers or software required.\n\n The PEX2M2 is backed by a Star Tech.com 2-year warranty & free lifetime technical support.\n\n The Star Tech.com Advantage\n\n- Improve system performance, recover data, or create a redundant data backup by adding two M.2 solid-state drives (SSD) to your desktop PC\n- Wide installation compatibility, with support for virtually all M.2 NGFF drives (22110, 2280, 2260, 2242, 2230)\n- Two M.2 B-Key onboard sockets that support SATA III transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps Feature Feature Value Host interface PCIe Output interface M.2 Expansion card form factor Full-height / Low-profile Expansion card standard PCI 2.0 Internal SATA ports quantity 2 Peripheral (Molex) power connectors (4-pin)1 Port multiplier N Internal Y Product colour Red Ro HS compliance Y Certification CE, FCC, TAAChipset ASMedia
