InLine® PCI Express card to 2x internal NVMe M.2 Key M - Bifurcation, PCIe x8 content_copy

Supports two NVMe M.2 SSDs for maximum performance and flexibility
PCIe 3.0 x8 connection with up to 64 Gb/s bandwidth
Hyper M.2 technology for automatic lane configuration
LED indicators for easy fault diagnosis and operating status
No additional driver required - native Windows and Linux support
The InLine® PCI Express card expands your system with two internal NVMe M.2 slots and enables the parallel operation of two NVMe SSDs with full PCIe bandwidth. Thanks to Hyper M.2 technology, the lane configuration is automatically detected at boot time for optimal system integration.
With a PCIe 3.0 x8 interface, the card offers a maximum bandwidth of up to 64 Gb/s, with each M.2 slot supporting a data rate of up to 4 GB/s. LED indicators for read and write activity make it easy to monitor the operating status.
Technical data:
Bus type & PCIe: PCIe 3.0 (8 GT/s) x8 lanes (for up to 64 Gb/s bandwidth)
Connection - interfaces: 2 x M.2 Key M slots - for the installation of NVMe SSDs
Chip set: PI6C20400BLE
Compatible M.2 module sizes: Supports 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110 SSDs

M.2 SSDs draw their power supply directly via the PCIe bus
No additional driver required - native support by the operating system
System requirements hardware:
PC with one free PCIe 3.0 x8 (or x16 slot)
Motherboard that supports PCIe bifurcation
PCIe bifurcation for optimal use of the card:
In order for both M.2 SSDs to be operated simultaneously, the PCIe slot used must often be set to Bifurcation mode in the BIOS/UEFI. This splits the available PCIe lanes into several channels (e.g. one x8 slot into two x4 channels). The exact designation varies depending on the motherboard manufacturer and BIOS/UEFI version. Terms such as PCIe Bifurcation", "Lane Splitting" or "PCIe Slot Configuration may be used. Please consult your mainboard manual for the correct setting and then check whether both NVMe SSDs are recognized.
