Multifunctional M.2 to SATA converter card for the connection of up to four SATA drives
M.2 Key B+M interface for the operation of an M.2 SATA SSD
RAID support (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, HyperDuo) for optimum data security and performance
Hot Plug & Hot Swap for the installation and removal of drives during operation
Port Multiplier support for parallel operation of multiple drives on one SATA port
No additional drivers required – full support by the operating system
The InLine® interface card M.2 Key B+M to 4x SATA connector is a high-performance storage solution that enables the expansion of SATA storage devices. It allows the operation of an M.2 SATA SSD (Key B+M) and also provides four SATA 6 Gb/s ports for additional storage devices.
Thanks to RAID support (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, HyperDuo), the card can be used for maximum speed, reliability or automatic SSD/HDD caching combinations. The Hot Plug and Hot Swap functionality allows drives to be swapped during operation without having to shut down the system.
The M.2 SSD is powered directly via the M.2 slot, while the SATA ports are connected via external cables. LED indicators show the operating status of the ports, and support for Port Multiplier technology allows multiple drives to operate simultaneously on a single SATA port.
