New drive adapter enables users to expand internal storage capability and harness the performance of U.2 drive capability.

The drive adapter is ideal for those who are interested in taking advantage of the increased speed and low latency of an U.2 (SFF-8639) NVMe SSD, but do not have a U.2 NVMe storage slot available in their computers or servers. This drive adapter lets users add NVMe performance to any computer or server by converting a U.2 NVMe SSD for use with a PCIe 3.0 x 4 host connection.

IT professionals, system integrators and installers, and prosumers who are building or upgrading a computer solution will appreciate the fast performance of U.2 NVMe SSDs. The drive adapter can be used in organizations, such as government offices, small to medium businesses, and education institutions.

Additional features and benefits of the new drive adapter are:

  • Supports one (1) 2.5" U.2 NVMe SSD; U.2 (SFF-8639) drive interface
  • PCIe 3.0 x 4 host interface; compatible with PCIe 3.0 motherboards
  • Backwards compatible with PCIe 2.0/1.0
  • Installs into an available PCIe slot on a desktop PC or server chassis
  • Includes all necessary installation hardware; easy to use and install and does not require any extra software or drivers
  • OS independent

"This drive adapter is a cost-effective solution for enhancing the performance of a server or workstation computer with a U.2 NVMe SSD," said Scott Burton, Product Manager, StarTech.com. "This adapter will be useful for users who want to take advantage of the increased speed and low latency of U.2 NVMe SSDs, but lack an available U.2 (SFF-8639) NVMe storage slot in systems."

The new expansion card is available at CDW, Amazon.com, Newegg.com, PC Connection, and Insight and will be distributed by Ingram Micro, SYNNEX, Tech Data, D&H and ASI.
