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.

PCI adopter I used did not increase the speed

I know the repo makes it look unapproachable, but I was able to figure it out with a tutorial pretty easily. Used it to boot older servers with NVMe pcie adapters like these

If anything, they're generally slower than using a dedicated M.2 slot aside from some special circumstances that probably don't apply to anyone.
For instance, if your motherboard's only other M.2 slot was an M+B key (generally reserved for WiFi cards but keyed for dual purpose) yet it somehow also has bifurcation support on the PCIe slots, going with the PCIe slot might be faster than the M+B keyed M.2.
I've yet to see something like this, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
It's best to consider these as last ditch options for when you've run out of practical expansion.
Personally, I would prioritize the SATA ports you already have or use external USB enclosures before messing with something like this.
