Qualitative, but not easy to put on
Bought this mainly to add a 3rd m2 pci express port to my MSI Z370 gaming pro carbon.
Replaced my 2 x 500gb M2 Nvme & SATA SSDs with 2 x M2 NvMe in 2TB and my old 500gb samsung nvme on the said card all perfectly recognized by my motherboard.
The positive points:
- I can also use both ports at the same time.
I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the M2 sata port on the motherboard and the nvme port on the pci express port on the cm.
Negative points:
- The 2 brackets provided (small and large) are a pain in the ass to put in, you have to place the card at an angle and then press to get the leds in.
- The system of maintenance of the dissipators with elastics in I don't know what silicone or rubber it is badly done; to see in the time
- I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use the two ports at the same time, but if it's just one, it's not a good idea to use the other.
- It's more expensive but I would recommend SSDs with a heatsink for the nvme port
