SABRENT M.2 NVMe SSD to PCIe x16 Adapter Card, Gen5, HeatsinkM-key NVMe only, Not for SATA M.2, 2230/2242/2260/2280, Aluminum heatsink, x4 electrical, Gen5 needs Gen5 slot

• NVMe M-KEY DRIVES ONLY, NOT SATA: This card takes M.2 M-key NVMe SSDs in the 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths, plus older B+M key PCIe (AHCI/NVMe) drives. It does NOT support SATA M.2 drives — if your drive says SATA on the label, it will not work here. Your motherboard also has to be NVMe-capable to boot or see the drive.
• GEN5 SPEED COMES FROM YOUR SLOT: The card connects at x4 and supports up to PCIe 5.0, for up to 16GBps offerirectional when the host slot is Gen5. In a Gen4 or Gen3 slot it runs at that slot's speed, not Gen5 — the card cannot add a generation your motherboard doesn't have. Check your slot generation before you buy if Gen5 throughput is the goal.
• ONE DRIVE, x16 CONNECTOR, NO BIFURCATION NEEDED: This is a single M.2 card with an x16 physical edge for stability, and it may fit some x4/x8 slots. Because it uses one drive it does not need motherboard bifurcation support. Confirm you have a free full-length PCIe slot and clearance around it — a tall CPU cooler, GPU or fan sitting over the slot can block the card.
• TOOL-FREE INSTALL, NO SCREWS: Drop the SSD in and lock it down without hunting for a tiny M.2 screw or a screwdriver. Nothing to lose, nothing to strip, and the drive comes back out just as fast when you want to move it to another machine.
• COOL AND QUIET, NO FAN: A built-in aluminum heatsink and thermal padding keep the SSD's temperature down under sustained load with no active cooling, so there is no extra fan noise in the case. It is SABRENT — register your product on the manufacturer's website for technical support.
