Description
This M.2 SSD RAID controller card lets you install two M.2 NGFF (Next Generation Form Factor) drives in your desktop computer. The card also features two SATA III (6 Gbps) ports.
Leverage the size and speed of M.2 drives
This M.2 controller card lets you take advantage of the size and performance benefits of NGFF SSDs. M.2 drives are smaller than typical platter drives or mSATA-based SSDs, so you can install them in small form-factor PCs and servers, or in tighter areas within a computer case.
When you couple the card with an M.2 drive, you can give your computer’s performance a noticeable speed boost. By installing your operating system on the M.2 drive, you’ll have faster access to the files you commonly use and you can continue to use your higher-capacity platter HDD for bulk storage.
Simple and cost-effective data recovery
M.2 drives are commonly used in laptops. If a laptop has failed but its M.2 drive is functional, then this card can help with data recovery. Once installed and the data recovery is complete, you can continue to use the drive for storage and backup purposes.
Build a high-performance RAID array
The card supports a range of RAID configurations (RAID 0, 1 and 10), giving you multiple ways to expand storage, improve your computer’s performance, or create data redundancy backups.
Connect more drives with port multiplication
Because the M.2 card supports port multiplication, you can connect up to four drives to one of the card’s SATA ports. With a built-in port multiplier, you can install up to seven drives (two M.2 SSDs, five SATA drives) in your computer through this single drive controller.
Supports a wide range of drives
The card supports the most common M.2 SATA drive sizes, including 22110, 2280, 2260, 2242 and 2230. It also supports hybrid drives.
