This is a good price for an inexpensive but useful tool. I myself have an older PC in which this'd be very handy

Careful, not all motherboards support booting to a drive in one of these if that is the intended use case.

afaik you need a dedicated 4x-16x slot, not one that's shared with graphics card... which i feel like people who are in the market for this would know ahead of time... it's a fairly specialized product

No, he means older motherboard BIOS do not support booting from NVME drives. You must mod your BIOS (AMI) if you have an older system.

hrm, interesting, so no bios update exists to make it work?

There is no official BIOS from your motherboard manufacturer, most likely. However, I have successfully modded several old systems to use NVME as boot drives with adapters.

I got one of these for ~$5 off Amazon with the heatsync so they come down in price quite often- you just need to search a bit.

That's not reflected in the price history for this model/brand -- the cheaper one fluctuates between $18/$15 new (sans extra coupons though). Were you referring to these types of adapters in general or this specific one?

Will using this adapter increase the I/O speed?

what is this
  • Do you want to add extra storage to a desktop computer?
  • Would you like to use an NVMe M.2 drive?
  • Are you out of free M.2 slots on your motherboard?
  • Do you have at least 4 PCIe lanes available?
  • Do you have at least an x4 PCIe slot available?
If you answered yes to all 4 questions, this might be the product for you. This will allow you to put the M.2 NVMe drive of your choice inside of it, and then stick it into your motherboard.

I would think, "If" you were to need this , you might want to get a multi drive card. I saw a 4 drive card somewhere and almost bit, but that was when 2 and 4 tb drives were dirt cheap. It is nice to see a heat sink.
