This small design provides great convenience for you during use, allowing you to intuitively control the status of storage devices without the need for complex software tools, ensuring worry free data storage.

Product Structure and Interface Introduction

NGFF (M.2) Key-M SSD slot:

Internally, high-precision molds are used for stamping and forming to ensure a tight fit with the SSD's gold fingers. Each pin is finely polished and made of high-quality metal materials to ensure good conductivity. The slot edge is designed with precise guiding devices to help the SSD insert quickly and accurately. At the same time, through the internal elastic buckle structure, once the SSD is inserted into place, it automatically locks, effectively preventing loosening and providing a solid foundation for the stable operation of the SSD.

U. 2 (SFF-8639) interface:

Strictly following industry standards, the internal pins are arranged neatly, and high-purity copper alloy material is selected to ensure efficient and stable power and data transmission. The interface shell is made of high-strength engineering plastic, which has good insulation performance and mechanical strength, effectively preventing damage to the interface caused by static interference and external collision. Its plug-in design is tightly fitted and can automatically lock after insertion to prevent loosening, laying a solid foundation for subsequent data transmission.

Bracket structure:

The bracket is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material and undergoes precise cutting and bending processes to ensure accurate size, which is completely consistent with a 2.5-inch hard drive. The surface has undergone anodizing treatment, which not only looks beautiful and elegant, but also enhances the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the bracket. The bracket and adapter card body are securely fixed with sturdy screws to ensure a tight connection. When installed inside the chassis, the same installation method as a 2.5-inch hard drive can be used, such as using a hard drive rack, screw fixation, etc., which is convenient and fast.

LED indicator light:

Using high brightness and low-power light-emitting diodes, coupled with carefully designed lampshades, it can still display the working status prominently in low light environments inside the chassis. Its internal circuit is closely connected to the power monitoring system of the adapter card, which can quickly and accurately reflect abnormal power supply situations.

Performance advantages:

Excellent storage performance expansion: With extensive compatibility with multiple sizes of M.2 SSDs and powerful transmission capabilities of high-speed U.2 (SFF-8639) interfaces, we provide users with excellent storage performance expansion solutions. Whether it's building a personal high-performance game console, quickly loading game maps and materials, or building an enterprise level server to meet the fast read and write needs of massive data, all can be easily achieved through this adapter card, keeping your storage system up to date and meeting the constantly growing performance demands.

Simplified installation process and cost: The bracket design that is consistent with the 2.5-inch hard drive size greatly simplifies the installation process. Users do not need to learn complex installation techniques, they can easily complete the installation of adapter cards and SSDs by following the conventional installation method for 2.5-inch hard drives. This not only saves installation time, but also reduces the risk of equipment damage caused by improper installation. At the same time, it reduces the demand for professional installation tools, lowers costs, and allows more users to enjoy the high-speed storage experience of M.2 SSDs.

Intelligent and intuitive status monitoring: The addition of LED indicator lights brings users intelligent and intuitive status monitoring functions. In daily use, users can instantly understand the working status of the adapter card and SSD through the color change of the indicator light, discover potential problems in a timely manner, and take measures. This convenient monitoring method effectively reduces the risk of data loss caused by equipment failure not being detected in a timely manner, and improves the security and reliability of data storage.

Usage method

Installation of adapter card:

Open the chassis and select a suitable location based on the internal layout of the chassis, usually close to the motherboard and convenient for wiring. Connect the U.2 (SFF-8639) interface of the M.2 SSD adapter to the corresponding interface on the motherboard through the U.2 (SFF-8639) cable, slowly and smoothly insert it, ensuring that the interface is fully inserted into place. A crisp "click" sound indicates a secure connection. At this point, gently pull the adapter card to check for any signs of looseness.

SSD insertion:

Pick up the NGFF (M.2) Key-M SSD with the gold finger that meets the size requirements, align the gold finger with the NGFF (M.2) Key-M SSD slot of the adapter card, pay attention to the correct insertion direction, and slowly insert with moderate force until the SSD is fully inserted into the slot. At this point, the elastic buckle inside the slot will automatically fasten the SSD to ensure its secure fixation. If the buckle is not fully fastened, gently press the buckle to make it tightly fit the SSD.

Pre startup inspection:

After inserting the SSD, carefully check whether the adapter card is tightly connected to the SSD, whether the buckle is securely fixed to the SSD, and whether there are any looseness, misalignment, or other issues. Meanwhile, observe whether other components inside the chassis are installed properly and whether there are any foreign objects obstructing them. If everything is normal, check the LED indicator light on the adapter card, confirm that the indicator light is on a stable blue light, and prepare to start the computer.

Usage and monitoring:

After starting the computer, pay attention to whether the system starts normally and whether there are any error messages. During the operation of the computer, the working status of the SSD, such as temperature and read/write speed, can be monitored through the system's built-in hardware monitoring tools or third-party software. If the SSD is found to be unstable, overheated, or frequently reporting errors, it should be stopped immediately to check whether the connection between the SSD and the adapter card is loose, whether the gold fingers are oxidized, whether there are electromagnetic interference sources inside the chassis, and to identify and solve potential faults to ensure stable operation of the computer.
