Review: Simple, effective and great way to add fast storage - Picked this up to add another NVMe drive to my PC and it’s honestly one of those products that just works. Installation is straightforward, slot it into a PCIe lane, mount the SSD and you’re good to go. It’s plug and play with no drivers needed, which makes it ideal if you just want a quick upgrade without messing around. Build quality is solid for the price. The aluminum heat sink and thermal pad are a nice addition and help keep temperatures under control, especially during heavier use. It’s not anything fancy, but it does the job and feels well put together. Performance-wise, it gives you the full benefit of NVMe speeds as long as you’re using a proper PCIe slot. It runs off PCIe x4 lanes, so you’re not bottlenecking the drive, which is exactly what you want when adding extra storage like this. It’s also quite flexible, fits into x4, x8 or x16 slots and supports standard M.2 NVMe drives up to 2280 size, so it’ll work with most common SSDs. If I had to be picky, it’s pretty basic, no RAID support or anything advanced, and it only handles one drive. Also worth noting it doesn’t support SATA M.2 drives, NVMe only, which might catch some people out. Overall, a really good, no-nonsense upgrade option. Perfect if you’ve run out of M.2 slots on your motherboard and want to add more fast storage without spending much. Would definitely recommend for a simple, reliable setup. Review: Works Perfectly! Really Great PCIe SSD Solution - Thankfully, it worked first-time in the only PCIe slot that I had available (in my Acer Aspire desktop). The installation was even easier than I expected - it doesn't use a mounting bracket because it actually sits completely inside the case. I've had a few Sabrent products and they are always very well engineered and built to high standards. I attached the supplied silicone heat pads which transfers the SSD heat to the big integrated heatsink. The heatsink keeps the heat level down much better than the usual small external NVMe USB enclosures. I'm amazed at the low cost - less than 15 quid! It's a real high quality bargain! Compact size fits perfectly and it's a speedy installation. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! AAA+++ ## Features - Ultimate Compatibility Convert your M.2 NVMe SSD with this m.2 nvme to pcie adapter. Designed for full support across pcie 3.0 x4 adapter slots, including x8 and x16 configurations. Easy to install, reliable and universally compatible. - Boosted Performance Achieve maximum throughput using this powerful nvme pcie adapter.

I do have a modded Bios which allows booting from NVMe drives. You would need to seek a modded Bios IMO to allow booting from such a device. If you search the web for the motherboard and NVMe it should show a number of options, however double check everything before using it to make sure it is for your motherboard because if your motherboard doesn't have Bios Flashback it is more risky. BTW I got my Bios from Winraids Level1Techs which is a recreated forum of the original Winraids forum. **Q: Does this work with pcie 4.0 ssds?** A: Yes, it works fine with PCIe 4.0, I am currently using it with a WD SN850. **Q: Has anyone tried this with an x79 asrock extreme 9 motherboard? tia** A: I use mine with ASUS PRIME X399-A Socket TR4/X399/DDR4/S-ATA 600/E-ATX Motherboard if this helps. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, effective and great way to add fast storage *by J***S on 12 April 2026* Picked this up to add another NVMe drive to my PC and it’s honestly one of those products that just works.

AAA+++ ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great piece of kit for adding another drive *by N***N on 11 January 2026* Worked great for adding a second drive to your system when you have spare pci slots. The included tools made it easy to put together and for the price its a good bit of kit, on a pci 16x lane you get the same high speed as what you would in a regular m.2 slot but I doubt it would be the same if you put it in a lower spec slot like x8 or x4 slow. ## Frequently Bought Together - SABRENT M.2 NVMe SSD to PCIe X16/X8/X4 Adapter Card with Aluminum Heatsink, Easy Install, Supports 2230/2242/2260/2280, Not Compatible with SATA or PCIe x1 (EC-PCIE) - Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD 1TB, PCIe Gen 4x4, Gen 5x2 M.2 2280, Speeds Up-to 7,250 MB/s, Upgrade Storage for PC/Laptops, HMB Technology and Intelligent Turbowrite 2.0, (MZ-V9S1T0B/AM) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/204225868-m-2-ssd-nvme-to-pcie-adapter-with-aluminum-heatsink](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/204225868-m-2-ssd-nvme-to-pcie-adapter-with-aluminum-heatsink) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
