Add two M.2 NGFF (Next Generation Form Factor) SATA SSDs to your computer by PCI Express This M.2 SSD controller card allows you to install two M.2 SATA SSDs into your PC by PCI Express. You can mount almost any M.2 drive directly to the card, providing a discreet and convenient way to improve the performance of your computer system. Additionally, this card is an essential expansion to your computer when you want to recover data from an existing M.2 drive or to expand your internal storage in general. Take advantage of the speed and size of M.2 drives. 2This M.2 controller card lets you take full advantage of the performance and size advantages of Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF) SSDs. M.2 drives are smaller than typical platter drives or mSATA-based SSDs. You can therefore install them in the smaller spaces of your computer chassis. By freeing up space inside your computer, you'll also have more room for other hardware upgrades. When you pair the card with an M.2 drive, you noticeably increase the speed performance of your computer, allowing you to replace your platter drive with a faster M.2 SATA III SSD (6 Gb/s). By installing your operating system on the M.2 drive, you'll have faster access to the files you usually use and can continue to use your larger capacity platter hard drive for mass storage. No more worries thanks to a simple and economical data recovery systemDue to their performance and advantageous size, M.2 drives are often used with laptops. If your laptop fails, but its M.2 drive is functioning properly, this card can help recover data. Once the M.2 drive is installed and the data has been recovered, you can continue to use the drive for storage and backup purposes. Extensive compatibilityYou are also guaranteed that your M.2 SATA drives are compatible with this card. It supports the most common drive sizes, including 22110, 2280, 2260, 2242 and 2230. The M.2 controller provides additional installation flexibility with a dual-profile form factor suitable for standard or compact enclosures. It is therefore the ideal solution for both compact and full-sized computers. Get up and running in no time This M.2 SSD controller card is easy to install and supports native operating systems without the need for drivers or additional software is required.The PEX2M2 model is backed by the StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.The StarTech.com Advantage
