Specifications

‌The PCI-e 1X/4X to M.2 M Key Adapter with CLKREQ is a specialized device designed to connect M.2 M Key NVMe SSDs to a PCI Express (PCI-e) slot on a motherboard. Here's a detailed breakdown of its features and functionality:


Key Features:

PCI Express Interface:

The adapter supports PCI-e 1X and 4X lanes, allowing compatibility with various motherboard slots.

It enables high-speed data transfer, which is crucial for NVMe SSD performance.

M.2 M Key Support:

The M.2 M Key connector is designed for NVMe SSDs, supporting faster data rates compared to SATA-based M.2 drives.

The adapter provides a physical interface for installing M.2 M Key SSDs, ensuring proper alignment and connection.

CLKREQ Signal:

the inclusion of the CLKREQ (Clock Request) signal is vital for power management, allowing the SSD to signal the host when it requires a clock signal for operation.

This feature is important for ensuring efficient power usage and can help reduce latency in certain applications.

Compact Design:


The adapter typically has a compact form factor, making it suitable for tight spaces in computer cases.

It often includes mounting holes for secure installation.

Plug and Play:


Most adapters are designed for easy installation with no additional drivers required, making it user-friendly for system builders and upgraders.

Typical Use Cases:

Upgrading Storage:

Users looking to upgrade their systems with faster NVMe storage can use this adapter to utilize M.2 SSDs on older motherboards that may not have native M.2 support.

Expanding Storage:

This adapter allows users to add additional high-speed storage options without needing to replace the motherboard.

Installation Considerations:

Compatibility:

Ensure the motherboard has an available PCI-e slot (either 1X or 4X) and that it supports the required data bandwidth for optimal SSD performance.

Power Requirements:

Verify that the system can provide adequate power to the adapter and the SSD, especially in configurations that demand high performance.

Thermal Management:

Depending on the SSD and workload, consider additional cooling solutions, as high-performance SSDs can generate significant heat.
