Description

StarTech M2-REMOVABLE-PCIE-N1 M.2 NVMe to PCIe Mobile Rack

Overview

The StarTech M2-REMOVABLE-PCIE-N1 provides a secure and accessible method to integrate an M.2 NVMe SSD into a standard PCIe x4 slot. This mobile rack design facilitates hot-swapping of NVMe drives, crucial for systems requiring frequent data access, drive maintenance, or rapid storage expansion without powering down. It's engineered for environments where direct, tool-less access to the M.2 drive is a priority, such as in high-performance workstations, servers, or specialized surveillance recording systems.

Compatibility

This adapter is designed for any motherboard or system with an available PCIe x4 slot (or larger, such as x8 or x16). It supports M.2 NVMe SSDs in 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 form factors. The PCIe interface ensures maximum bandwidth for NVMe drives, allowing them to perform at their rated speeds. It is compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, provided the OS supports NVMe drives.

Installation Notes

Installation requires an available PCIe x4 slot. The mobile rack unit mounts into a standard 3.5-inch drive bay or can be secured via screws in an open chassis space. The M.2 NVMe SSD is secured within the removable tray using a single screw. Ensure adequate airflow around the installed unit, as NVMe drives can generate significant heat under load.
