ICY DOCK - EZConvert - MB705M42P-B - M.2 PCIe 4.0 NVMe to 2.5 U.2 NVMe SSD Converter 7mm height tool-less silver

Data centers and enterprise IT teams often need to repurpose high-performance M.2 NVMe SSDs into hot-swappable 2.5" U.2 drive bays. The ICY DOCK EZConvert MB705M4P-S solves this by converting any M.2 NVMe SSD (2230 to 22110) into a 7mm 2.5" U.2 NVMe SSD. Simply drop in the M.2 drive, secure it with the tool-less latch, and slide the converter into a U.2 backplane or enclosure. The full metal housing and included thermal pad keep your drive cool under sustained PCIe 4.0 loads.

Key specifications

• Converts M.2 NVMe SSD to 2.5" U.2 NVMe SSD (SFF-8639)
• Supports PCIe 4.0 x4 (up to 64Gbps), backward compatible with PCIe 3.0
• Fits M.2 NVMe SSDs: 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110
• Tool-less M.2 drive installation – no screws required
• Full metal construction with aluminum heat sink and thermal pad
• 7mm drive height – fits standard 2.5" U.2 drive bays
• Hot-swap capable with drive activity LED
• Durable connector rated for 10,000 insertion/removal cycles

Why choose it

This converter bridges the gap between compact M.2 NVMe storage and enterprise U.2 infrastructure. It lets you use cost-effective M.2 drives in servers, RAID arrays, and external enclosures that require U.2 hot-swap capability. The robust metal build and passive cooling ensure reliability, while the tool-less design makes drive swaps effortless.

Ideal use cases

• Data centers: deploy M.2 NVMe SSDs in U.2 hot-swap bays
• Enterprise storage: expand capacity with high-speed M.2 drives
• IT maintenance: quick drive replacement without tools
• High-performance workstations: use M.2 NVMe in removable U.2 slots

Good to know

Only compatible with M.2 NVMe SSDs (PCIe protocol). M.2 SATA SSDs are not supported. The converter includes a thermal pad for optimal heat transfer. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 60°C, and storage temperature range is -20°C to 85°C. Colour: silver.
