Windows 10 x64 recognized the board immediately and no driver installation was required. Unlike another reviewer's experience, there were no issues inserting the USB plugs. While the fit is snug, if there's a problem, it's with your case.
This works for me. There is no high power output over USB-C, just USB 3.0 speeds all around, but that's what I expected. The device is for an older computer that only had USB 2.0. There is an internal header, and a SATA power connection. This gives me USB 3.0 type A plugs on my case exterior. It's just what I was needing.
Inexpensive and simple card to allow you to access m.2 drives by giving them a SATA connector set.
Read and write speeds are excellent, limited more by the NVME controller than anything else. No special drivers required, Win 10 x64 installed the card correctly and recognized the attached nvme drive when I first logged in after installing the card.
Plugs right in. Drives connect right up. Heat sinks are a nice touch. Like it was made for my PC. Faster, quieter, cooler.
My motherboard has only a single M.2 PCIe slot. I bought this card so as to be able to clone my current M.2 PCIe OS drive to a new/different M.2 PCIe SSD. It worked fine for that.
Allows me to use an NVMe drive on an older C300 chipset board.
-Super low profile -Black PCB -Has a heatsink, but I don't use it -Paired with my 970 EVO NVMe 1TB M.2 to replace a Raid 0 array. Used Samsung Magician to clone the Raid to the M.2 and used it as my boot drive and EVERYTHING worked 100%. -Old speed was ~940 Read with CrystalDisk, now its 3600.
All four ports have header connections. Includes low profile brackets. Kernel module source code available on StarTech's website.
