Product Description
Lycom DT-131 M.2 NVMe to U.2 (Mini-SAS HD 36-pin) Adapter Module
The Lycom DT-131 is a compact adapter module designed to connect an M.2 NVMe SSD to a U.2 (SFF-8639) interface via a Mini-SAS HD (36-pin) connection. It is ideal for workstation, server, and enterprise environments where U.2 backplanes or controllers are used but M.2 NVMe storage is preferred.
This adapter provides a clean and reliable way to integrate high-performance M.2 NVMe SSDs into U.2-based storage systems, test benches, or custom builds, without requiring drivers or software.
Key Features:
- Converts M.2 NVMe (M-Key) SSDs to U.2 (SFF-8639) interface
- Uses Mini-SAS HD 36-pin connector for PCIe signal delivery
- Supports PCIe NVMe SSDs only (not SATA)
- Compact module design for servers, workstations, and lab environments
- No drivers required — adapter is hardware-only
Included:
- 1 x Lycom DT-131 M.2 NVMe to U.2 adapter module
Product Q&A
Q: Does this adapter support M.2 SATA SSDs?
A: No. The DT-131 supports M.2 NVMe (PCIe) SSDs only. M.2 SATA SSDs are not compatible.
Q: What is this adapter typically used for?
A: It’s commonly used to connect an M.2 NVMe SSD to systems or backplanes that use a U.2 (SFF-8639) interface, such as servers, workstations, or storage test environments.
Q: Do I need drivers or software?
A: No. This is a passive hardware adapter. NVMe support depends on your system and operating system.
Q: Can I boot from an SSD connected through this adapter?
A: Boot capability depends entirely on your system firmware and controller support for NVMe over U.2. The adapter itself does not limit boot functionality.
Q: Is this suitable for consumer desktop PCs?
A: Only if the system has a compatible U.2 connection or controller. This product is primarily intended for workstation and server-class systems.
