DeLOCK M.2 Key M to U.2 SFF-8639 NVMe Adapter with 20 cm cable

This adapter by Delock enables connecting a U.2 (SFF-8639) NVMe drive to an M.2 Key M slot (2280) on a motherboard. It includes a 20 cm cable and supports PCIe NVMe connections, allowing use of U.2 SSDs where only an M.2 Key M interface is available.

Advantages

The DeLOCK M.2 Key M to U.2 SFF-8639 NVMe Adapter provides a straightforward hardware solution to link U.2 SSDs to M.2 Key M slots without requiring additional drivers. Its 20 cm cable offers flexible placement inside cases and server chassis, and compatibility with PCIe NVMe ensures high-speed data transfer typical for NVMe drives.

Suitable for

• Connecting U.2 NVMe SSDs to motherboards with an M.2 Key M (2280) slot
• Expanding storage in workstations and servers
• Testing or migrating data between U.2 and M.2 NVMe drives

Key specifications

• Interface conversion: M.2 Key M (2280) to U.2 (SFF-8639)
• Cable length: 20 cm
• Protocol support: PCIe NVMe
• Compatibility: Windows and Linux operating systems
• Brand: DELOCK, MPN: 64216, EAN: 4043619642168

How to use

Install the adapter by inserting it into the M.2 Key M (2280) slot on the motherboard and secure it according to the motherboard’s M.2 installation procedure. Connect the 20 cm cable from the adapter to the U.2 (SFF-8639) SSD. Power on the system and verify the drive is detected in the BIOS/UEFI or the operating system. No additional drivers are typically required for Windows or Linux when using PCIe NVMe SSDs.

Recommendations

Ensure the motherboard supports NVMe devices via the M.2 Key M slot and that BIOS settings permit PCIe lanes for the slot. Use proper anti-static precautions during installation and allow adequate airflow in the chassis to maintain SSD operating temperatures.
