GLOTRENDS PA12 Dual M.2 SSD PCIe X4 Adapter Without Heatsink for One M.2 NVMe SSD and One M.2 SATA SSD, Support PCIe 4.0 SSD and OS Boot from M.2 NVMe SSD
2 in 1 M.2 SSD Adapter : Install this adapter to motherboard PCIe X4/X8/X16 slot, your PC will get 1 x M.2 PCIe slot (Key M) and 1 x M.2 SATA slot (Key B). (Note: can not work with PCIe X1 slot)
Mounting 1 x M.2 SATA SSD to M.2 SATA Slot (at the upper side): Firstly, please connect the adapter SATA port to motherboard SATA port via SATA III cable (Inclued). To be noted, to reach SATA III 6Gbps, motherboard SATA port should be SATA III feature.
Mounting 1 x M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD to M.2 PCIe Slot (at the below side): M.2 PCIe SSD can operate at PCIe X4 full speed. It's like being installed directly on the motherboard, and the speed is basically unaffected. Support PCIe 4.0/3.0 M.2 SSD. No capacity limitation, support 2T/4T capacity SSD
Support OS booting from M.2 NVMe SSD: Need to reinstall OS, and setup BIOS/UEFI booting from this M.2 NVMe SSD. (Note: Some motherboards too old to setup OS booting from M.2 PCIe SSD. Additionally, Windows 7 may not support OS booting from M.2 PCIe SSD. In this case M.2 PCIe SSD can be used as storage disk)
OS compatibility: Plug and play in Windows 11/10/8/Linux/Mac OS. (Note: Windows 7 does not has native NVMe driver, so can not support M.2 NVMe SSD)
