DeLOCK PCI Express x16 Card to 4 x internal NVMe M.2 Key M - Low Profile Form Factor

This PCI Express x16 card by Delock provides four internal NVMe M.2 Key M slots in a low-profile form factor, allowing connection of up to four M.2 SSDs in sizes 2280, 2260 and 2242. The card supports a maximum combined data transfer rate of 32 Gbit/s and includes an active cooling solution with one fan. It is compatible with Windows 10, Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2019 and is intended to expand storage capacity for desktop systems, gaming PCs and servers.

Advantages

The card offers four simultaneous M.2 NVMe connections via a PCIe x16 interface, support for common 2280/2260/2242 module sizes and a built-in fan for active cooling to maintain performance under load. Its low-profile bracket enables installation in compact cases, and compatibility with modern Windows operating systems simplifies driver and system integration.

How to use

Install the card into an available PCIe x16 slot on the motherboard and secure it to the chassis with the low-profile bracket. Mount M.2 NVMe SSDs into the M.2 sockets (supporting 2280, 2260 or 2242), fasten them with the appropriate standoffs or screws, and connect any required power or system headers if specified by your chassis. After hardware installation, power on the system and verify detection of all connected NVMe drives in the BIOS/UEFI or operating system. Install or update drivers and configure RAID or disk management as needed under Windows 10, Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2019.

Recommendations

For optimal performance and longevity, ensure adequate airflow within the case so the card's fan can dissipate heat effectively; avoid obstructing the fan and monitor drive temperatures under sustained load. Use drives of the same capacity and performance if configuring RAID, and verify motherboard PCIe lane allocation to ensure full bandwidth.
