The StarTech.com PEX8M2E2 is a PCIe 3.0 x8 adapter card for adding and accessing two M.2 PCIe NVMe or AHCI SSDs at the same time, suited to desktop workstation and server users with an x8 or larger PCIe slot.

Recommended For

  • Workstation or server owners who need to add two PCIe M.2 SSDs through one available x8-or-larger slot, especially on a system that does not support PCIe bifurcation.
  • Homelab and storage-server builders who want two M.2 PCIe drives for separate storage or an OS-managed software RAID, without relying on motherboard bifurcation.
  • Owners of older desktop workstations or servers who need to add PCIe NVMe or AHCI M.2 storage and value compatibility with PCIe 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0 systems.
  • Desktop users adding 2242, 2260, or 2280 PCIe M.2 drives who need a single expansion card to access both drives at once.
