Microconnect MC-PCIE-X4M2 kartice sučelja/adapteri interni M.2

The MicroConnect MC-PCIE-X4M2 is an internal M.2 interface card that enables installation of NVMe or SATA M.2 drives in a server or desktop via a PCIe x4 slot. The card supports PCIe 3.0 x4 bandwidth for NVMe drives and provides a SATA connection option for SATA-protocol M.2 drives, allowing integration with motherboard SATA ports using a SATA cable. It is a lightweight, passively cooled expansion card designed for reliable, quiet operation in server environments and is compatible with Windows 10 and Windows Server 2012 R2.

Advantages

The adapter supports both PCIe NVMe and SATA-protocol M.2 SSDs, offering flexible drive compatibility. PCIe 3.0 x4 support ensures high transfer bandwidth for NVMe drives while SATA v3.0 compatibility allows connection of SATA M.2 drives at up to 6 Gbps. Passive cooling and a compact, lightweight design (0.05 kg) provide reliable performance without added noise.

Suitable for

• Adding NVMe M.2 SSDs to servers or desktops with a free PCIe x4 slot
• Connecting SATA-protocol M.2 drives to a motherboard SATA port via SATA cable
• Upgrading storage performance in office and entertainment systems
• Server environments requiring silent, passively cooled expansion cards

How to use

Install the MicroConnect MC-PCIE-X4M2 into an available PCIe x4 (or larger) slot on the motherboard. For NVMe M.2 drives, insert the M.2 NVMe SSD into the card's M.2 slot and secure it according to the card's mounting point. For SATA-protocol M.2 drives, mount the M.2 SATA SSD on the card and connect a SATA cable from the card to an available SATA port on the motherboard. After installation, ensure BIOS/UEFI recognizes the installed drive and configure the operating system (Windows 10 or Windows Server 2012 R2) as needed.

Recommendations

Use a PCIe x4 or larger slot for full NVMe performance, confirm drive protocol (NVMe vs SATA) before installation, and ensure proper system grounding during installation. For best results with NVMe drives, enable PCIe 3.0 x4 in BIOS/UEFI if required and verify driver support in the operating system.
