SSD disk DELOCK 8x M.2 NVMe Key M SFF-8643 61073

The DELOCK 8x M.2 NVMe Key M SFF-8643 61073 Testboard is designed to accommodate and evaluate up to eight M.2 NVMe Key M SSDs via an SFF-8643 host interface. It provides a practical platform for connecting multiple NVMe M.2 drives simultaneously for functional testing, performance measurement, firmware updates and interoperability checks. The testboard is intended for technicians, developers and system integrators who need a compact, repeatable setup for working with high-speed storage devices.

Advantages

The testboard supports eight M.2 NVMe Key M devices at once and uses a standard SFF-8643 connection for integration with compatible host controllers and test systems. Its layout simplifies insertion and removal of M.2 modules and enables parallel testing workflows. The robust mechanical design and clear interface mapping reduce handling errors and streamline diagnostics without requiring permanent installation into target systems.

Suitable for

• Functional testing of multiple M.2 NVMe Key M SSDs
• Performance benchmarking and throughput measurement
• Firmware updates and validation for M.2 NVMe drives
• Compatibility and interoperability checks with controllers and host systems
• Laboratory or workshop evaluation of high-speed storage components

Key specifications

• Form factor supported: M.2 NVMe Key M SSDs (up to 8 devices)
• Host interface: SFF-8643 connector
• Primary use: testing and evaluation of NVMe M.2 storage devices
• Connection type: internal SFF-8643 to NVMe M.2 sockets
• Mechanical design: multi-socket testboard for simultaneous device insertion

How to use

Install the testboard into a compatible test system by connecting the SFF-8643 interface to the host controller or test adapter. Carefully insert M.2 NVMe Key M SSDs into the designated sockets, ensuring correct orientation and seating. Power and initialize the host system, then use your preferred diagnostic or benchmarking software to detect and evaluate each connected SSD. For firmware updates or stress testing, run the appropriate utilities while monitoring temperature and performance metrics.

Recommendations

Use a compatible SFF-8643 host and appropriate power supply; handle M.2 modules with ESD precautions; avoid excessive mechanical force when inserting or removing drives to preserve socket integrity and ensure reliable test results.
