First time installing M.2 SSD. Shall I worry about the temperature? It's next to my graphics card.

wow, your sata m.2 almost run as hot as nvme m.2

but no worry the temperature la...even nvme m.2 will shoot up to 70°c then throttled.

Anyone interested in NVMe M.2 to PCI-e adapter?
I just received this today, but it doesn't suitable to my Gigabyte H97 mobo. Want to let go or swap with M.2 SATA to 2.5" SATA adapter.

Although it works in full speed, but got bug with my pc. I have to wait 30 seconds after shutdown my pc then only can press turn on again, else it won't be detected.
It seems like kind of auto jumper to switch between PCI-e Gen1 Gen2 Gen3 and cause incompatibility.

The adapter comes with 2 screws and a mini screwdriver.


Just Google around, maybe the problem is I didn't use any dedicated UEFI boot GPU.

I have this as well. But stopped using it since my motherboard now has 3 x M.2 NVMe slots
So a converter is no longer necessary

some mobo share the m.2 slot bandwidth with 2 sata ports, gonna use adapter to free up the sata ports doh.gif

I have the olddd Asrock H87 Pro4 that does not come with any m.2 slot but thinking to upgrade my storage to m.2 nvme SSD. So before I take the plunge, anyone here can give some advice?

1. Can this motherboard support the m.2 nvme drive as a boot drive with the BETA Bios 2.40?

Quoted from AsRock technical personnel -

"Dear Luk,
Thanks for posting your query to ASRock forum.
This is technical support from ASRock.
This motherboard does not support M.2 natively.
However, we have added the M.2 support to BETA BIOS 2.40.
So the users are able to use PCIe to M.2 adapter with M.2 on the system.
Please note that BIOS 2.40 is a BETA BIOS, there will be chances that M.2 cannot be detected because of the PCIe to M.2 adapter card.
BIOS 2.40 can be found with the following link:
https://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H87%20Pro4/#BIOS
With thanks,
ASRock TSD "
2. Seeing that in Asrock's official website, the H87 specs as
- 1 x PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot (PCIE2: x16 mode)
- 3 x PCI Express 2.0 x1 slots
- 2 x PCI slots

My graphic card is currently occupying the PCIE 3.0 slot, so if I were to buy a PCIE - M.2 NVME adapter, which slot will it be going to? As majority of the adapter list as only support PCI E X16, X8 and X4.

Here are a few adapter that I have shortlisted:
1. https://www.lazada.com.my/ugreen-pcie-to-m2...3778654999.html
2. https://www.lazada.com.my/ampcom-m2-nvme-to...3002540382.html
3. https://shopee.com.my/JEYI-SK9-m.2-Expansio...0200.2347167239

Would any of this work with my mobo?

Any advice is appreciated.

Here is a photo of the motherboard.

no u can't…u lack of pcie x4 slot…change mobo is the only solution.

or u could buy sata type of m.2 ssd together with sata m.2 to 2.5" sata adapter and connect to your mobo with sata cable…

if u want higher speed why not buy 2 same ssd and do raid 0 on it.

nvme m.2 isn't for your mobo because your gpu already occupied the x16 slot

Technically you can slot a PCIe x4 card in a x1 slot, as long as you have the correct adapter for that (or the slot itself is open ended) - PCIe is quite good when it comes to form factor flexibility icon_idea.gif

That being said, it's not worth doing that due to severe bandwidth constraints, i.e. the drive will perform slower than a regular SATA one due to the slots can only provide a maximum theoretical speed of 500MB/s icon_idea.gif

yea…i know…but didn't see any m.2 pcie adapter card with that kind of pin

some more pointless for him to do so.
