Product Description
XIC PE580 is a high performance, low dielectric loss factor interface conversion card. It connects NVMe SSD or PCIe connectors via MCIO 74pin connector, supports up to 2 PCIe devices or NVMe SSDs. The bandwidth of the card is the bandwidth that the PCIe slot of the motherboard can support.
The Motherboard with CPU and BIOS needs to support bifurcation to ensure PCIe x8 link width to bifurcate two x4 link width for NVMe SSD, Otherwise this card can only support PCIe link width of one device.
Features
Support up to 2 PCIe devices or NVMe SSDs
Compatible with PCIe Gen5, Gen4&Gen3&Gen2&Gen1
Directly connected to U. 2 NVMe SSD by MCIO to 2xSFF-8639 cable
Support bifurcated in two x4 data link width configuration (CPU and BIOS both support)
Build in MCIO 8i connector, pin-out defined by SFF-9402
Operating system support
The adapter does not require a driver for operation or communication to attached NVMe drives. The drives are presented natively to the host and use the native NVMe drivers.
