In Add-On Cards

- Easy to install - It uses x8 instead of x16 PCIE slots - super easy plug n play with no manual driver installation

- The heat sink plate is WELL CONSTRUCTED and nice and thick! Make sure you mount your M.2 NVMe drives and then place the heat sink adhesive on the drives and then mount and screw the plate in place. - Note: the board has a +12V fan connector on it that is not used in this variant. Riitop sells another that is a fan-based model were a fan (in place of the plate) would normally mount. - The kit comes with a decent screwdriver you need to install the heat sink plate. I have sooo many screwdrivers now because I have ordered similar kits.

Maybe a Necessity if You Have a USB-C on Front Panel Header because no USB 3.2 GEN1 connector on motherboard. The PCI-E 1X to USB 3.2 GEN1 5Gbps 20pin Front Panel Header allows you to connect the USB-C front panel header to your PCI-E 1X slot

It works fr exactly what I needed. A PCIe card to host a m.2 at PCIe4.0 x4, I got 2.6gbs transfer speeds between this card and the cpu m.2. I will get more if needed. There is probably better cards for this but for the price, can not beat it. This is a true review, not AI, Steve

Make sure your PCI slot is operational. Otherwise it's simple, Lowered my MB temperature at least 6 degrees Celsius.

Looks to be well made with the SATA ports attached solidly to the card (I purchased a few from other manf. in the past where the SATA ports broke or became loose and I had to super-glue them back on). Easy install: -- driver support as far back as kernel 4.18.16-300.fc29.x86_64, so happy about that! -- came with power and SATA cables - so it's a complete package for the price.

Used this to expand the number of drives in a smallish Ubuntu home server. Still testing, but seems flawless so far and transparent to the user - just more drives available. All I did was power down, plug it in the PCIe 3.0 slot, attach a couple drives, and power up. Drives were recognized immediately and accessible like all the others. They claim max throughput of 277MB/s but so far both drives tested at 500 MB/s+ the same as when plugged into the mobo ports. I assume the limited speed might occur if multiple drives were accessed at once. Since it's a server and I'm using this to add SSDs, i doubt I will ever notice any slow downs. Bonus: the 6 provided SATA cables have locking connectors and are of a reasonable length.

Works... Lots of USB Ports! The internal header is great!

6 ports non raid sata3 doesn't slow boot time plug and play (auto gave me 2020 driver) heatsink on chip

Reasonablly priced, and works flawlessly under Linux Mint 17.

Easy install, works as expected.

Awesome high speed M.2 storage option. Well built and sturdy. Includes internal fan for cooling drives.

Installed right out of the box.
