Product Description
Lycom PCIe 4.0 x4 Host Adapter with Mini-SAS HD (36-Pin) for U.2 NVMe SSD
The Lycom PCIe 4.0 x4 host adapter is designed to connect U.2 (2.5-inch) NVMe SSDs to a desktop or workstation via a standard PCIe slot. Using a Mini-SAS HD 36-pin connector, it delivers full PCIe NVMe performance and is ideal for high-speed storage expansion in professional and enterprise-grade systems.
This adapter is intended for systems that require direct PCIe connectivity to U.2 NVMe SSDs, such as workstations, servers, and advanced storage builds. No drivers are required — functionality depends on system firmware and NVMe support.
Key Features:
- PCIe 4.0 x4 host interface for high-bandwidth NVMe storage
- Mini-SAS HD 36-pin connector for U.2 (SFF-8639) NVMe SSDs
- Designed for enterprise and workstation-class U.2 NVMe deployments
- Backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 systems
- No drivers required — hardware-level NVMe adapter
Included:
- 1 x Lycom PCIe 4.0 x4 U.2 NVMe host adapter card
Product Q&A
Q: What type of SSDs does this adapter support?
A: It supports U.2 (2.5-inch) NVMe SSDs. SATA-based U.2 drives are not supported.
Q: Does this card support SATA or M.2 SSDs?
A: No. This adapter is designed exclusively for U.2 NVMe SSDs using PCIe.
Q: Can I boot from a U.2 NVMe SSD using this card?
A: Boot support depends on your system’s firmware/UEFI and NVMe support. The adapter itself does not restrict boot functionality.
Q: Do I need drivers?
A: No drivers are required for the adapter card. NVMe support must be provided by the operating system.
Q: Is this suitable for consumer desktop PCs?
A: Only if the system has proper PCIe lane support and UEFI NVMe compatibility. This product is primarily intended for workstation and server-class systems.
