Conceptronic EMRICK M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe adapter

The Conceptronic EMRICK M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe Adapter connects an M.2 NVMe SSD directly to a desktop motherboard through a PCIe slot. It supports PCIe 3.0 x4 lanes for high bandwidth and is compatible with common M.2 M-key SSD sizes. The compact adapter (40 × 102 × 18 mm) is intended to boost storage performance in office and entertainment systems and is compatible with Windows 10.

Advantages

This PCIe adapter provides PCIe 3.0 x4 connectivity for low-latency, high-throughput access to NVMe drives. It supports the majority of M.2 M-key form factors and installs directly into a motherboard PCIe slot, offering a simple way to upgrade storage speed without changing the motherboard. Its small dimensions make it suitable for most desktop systems.

Suitable for

• Upgrading desktop storage to NVMe speeds
• Improving performance of office PCs
• Enhancing responsiveness of home entertainment or media PCs
• Systems that have available PCIe slots but no M.2 socket

How to use

Power down the PC and unplug it from the mains. Insert the adapter into an available PCIe slot on the motherboard and secure it according to your case layout. Mount a compatible M.2 M-key NVMe SSD onto the adapter following the SSD manufacturer’s instructions, fasten the SSD with the provided screw, then close the case. Reconnect power and boot the system; Windows 10 should detect the NVMe drive. If necessary, initialize and format the new drive using the operating system’s disk management tools.

Recommendations

For best performance, use a PCIe 3.0 x4 compatible M.2 NVMe SSD and install the adapter in a full-bandwidth PCIe slot. Ensure proper airflow in the case to avoid thermal throttling of the SSD.
