The motherboard is x79 x99 or Z97 Z170 z270. This kind of old chipset motherboard does not recognize the disk when it is turned on for the first time (we have encountered pm983 pm983a pm983 DCT in our store, and according to netizens' feedback, there is a SSD in Qicaihong). It is estimated that because the motherboard is too old, the master control of the hard disk is too new, and the motherboard BIOS is not very compatible with the hard disk), it doesn't matter if you plug it into the system for the first time, Restart the system for the second time and you can recognize the disk. For the same hard disk, the same adapter card, and the same computer, you must do the same for changing the PCIe slot. After correct identification, install the system and make the system disk or data disk.
Key points before purchase:
1. This adapter card only supports 22110 2280 2260 2242 2230 size PCIe x2 X4 AHCI and nvme protocol m.2 ngff hard disk to PCIe X4 interface, SATA protocol m.2 ngff SSD to SATA interface, this SATA interface needs to be connected to the SATA interface of the motherboard with SATA data cable to use!
2. This adapter card is a PCIe X4 interface, which can be inserted into the PCIe x16 X8 and PCIe X4 slots of the computer, but the speed is still running at the speed of PCIe X4. This product is compatible with PCIe 4.0 3.0 2.0 1.0, but the interface bandwidth is different and the speed is different.
3. Whether it can be used as a system disk is related to your motherboard and has nothing to do with the adapter card. Generally, motherboards with DDR4 memory can support nvme protocol hard disk as the startup disk. Some old motherboards can also start nvme hard disk by brushing BIOS.
5. After receiving the goods, it is recommended to connect the adapter card to the hard disk and insert it into the motherboard slot, and then take photos to confirm and try the machine again. Our store often encounters the slot card slot or hard disk and the plug is reversed! If you make a mistake, the consequences are very serious, and the adapter card, motherboard and hard disk will be burned!
6. About aoten, our store does not provide technical support. The use of aoten is conditional. This adapter card is essentially to lead several wires from your hard disk to the PCIe slot of the motherboard, and change the interface shape. It does not need any chips, which is equivalent to the role of a cable.
7. Product size (excluding hardware baffle): PCB size: length * width =126mm*68mm.
This adapter card is used to convert the m.2 ngff solid-state drive of PCIe X4 or PCIe X2 interface protocol into the PCIe X1 interface on the desktop motherboard. It is mainly used for batch testing of solid-state drives, firmware upgrading, etc., or when the PCIe X4 interface of some motherboards is not enough, it can be used in an emergency. Note: solid-state drives cannot run at full speed with this adapter card! Try to insert PCIe 3.0 4.0 slot of the motherboard. If you insert PCIe 2.0 or PCIe 1.0 slot, the speed is very slow!
