## Description

NVMe PCIe Adapter, RIITOP M.2 NVMe to PCI-e 5.0 x4/x8/x16 Card with Heat Sink

Review: Works Well and good value - I used these with multiple Samsung 990 PRO, M2 SSD's. They have heat sinks so i only used the adaptor and not the included Heat Sink. Easy install into a PCIe slot. Holds securely. Seems well constructed. I installed 3 of them and they perform flawlessly. So a well made product. If using with a standard M2 I would have used the included heat sink. I recommend this product.
Review: Works exactly as described - Pros: Easy to install, works perfectly, No drivers needed, comes with everything you need to install a nvme drive. Cons: the back of the nvme drive doesn't make contact with pcb so having thermal pad in-between the pcb and drive probably doesn't matter. Also since the nvme drive doesn't touch the pcb the thermal pad for the back of the pcb and backplate is also not important. I'm guessing if you somehow have a m.2 device that makes contact with the pcb then the thermal pads would make sense. Lastly no matter if I took off the back thermal pad or not i couldn't get the bottom left screw of the back plate to go in. Maybe I wasn't putting the card in the heat sink properly, I spent 10 minutes fidgeting with it trying to get the card in correctly but couldn't figure out why the screw wasn't connecting. I bet you could get a longer screw and you'd be able to secure it better. I ended up leaving the screw out which seemed un important and so far isn't an issue. I got my brother a WD nvme but found out after buying it that the second m.2 slot on his mother board wasn't for storage and wouldn't work with the drive. He had another pcie x16 slot so I got this expansion card and it works perfectly. For those like me he has a B450M Pro mother board which has two pcie x16 slots but the second one is only 2.0. I read online that the slot only being 2.0 would slow the drive down significantly but after installing the drive in the card and running a speed test I was getting 1500mbps which is the same speed as his Samsung 970 nvme in the m.2 slot. I'm not sure why the 970 is only that speed when it's rated much higher, maybe the motherboard doesn't support higher speeds. At the end of it all im very pleased with this product with how it work without any drivers and only took about 20 minutes to install which would have been more like 5 if I didn't try putting the back plate on backwards.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the nvme ssd use all x16 lanes of the pcie? this is the only adapter i have seen with x16**
A: any of these similar items are simply copper foil lines that spread that 22mm wide group of lines on the module apart so it inserts to the socket video cards use. being only 22mm wide, only four lanes of PCI, although my Patriot runs full speed with only two lanes, by design. Four modules fit on: "Hyper M.2 x16 card V2" by ASUS

**Q: anyone use this as booting drive for mac pro 2010 ?**
A: Yes it works just fine, just ensure you've got the latest firmware (144.0.0.0.0) as older firmware won't support booting from NVMe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty easy to set up with a NVMe SDD.
*by B***N on July 13, 2019*

It's compact and has silicon pads to help with heat distribution. There are 3 silicon pads in the kit in 3 different thicknesses and this had me wondering which to use where. I just temp fitted them to see what I needed where. If my SSD had been thinner I think all 3 could have been used. Ended up using the thickest on the bottom of my Intel 660p SSD and middle thickest on the top of the SSD. I tried to use the 3rd one on the bottom but I couldn't get the aluminum case closed snuggly with the screws. It worked easily with my PC, no issues with drivers on Windows 10 64 Bit. I think the most issues I had was with handling the tiny screws. Nicely engineered case...feels solid when closed up. In 2020, I bought a 2nd one with a Samsung 970 EVO and it's not working. It's still a solid product, but in plugging it into my wife's computer (same MB as mine in hers so I didn't expect any issues) on boot I get one long beep and 3 short beeps (Video card issue). In pulling it out, the computer boots up normally. I tried several times and all boot attempts gave the 1 long and 3 short beeps. Now I'm wondering if it's the adapter or the Samsung 970 EVO. I may just exchange them both and try again.
