This M.2 to SATA Solid State Drive Adapter – Expansion Slot Mounted lets you connect a SATA M.2 (NGFF) solid state drive to a standard SATA port, and mount the drive into any desktop expansion slot. Now, you can greatly increase the performance of your desktop computer by replacing your platter drive with a fast M.2 NGFF solid state drive. By installing your primary operating system on the M.2 solid state drive and using your higher-capacity platter hard drive for bulk storage, you can harness the speedy performance of the M.2 drive for frequently accessed data while storing files you access less often on your platter drive.
For a hassle-free installation, the adapter mounts into any new or legacy desktop expansion slot, with support for AGP, PCI, and PCIe slots. The adapter also includes full-profile and low-profile brackets, ensuring compatibility with both full-sized and small form factor desktops.
