## Description

Full description not available

## Features

- Quad U.2 SSD to PCIe 4.0 X16 Adapter: By installing 4 U.2 SSDs on this PCIe 4.0 X16 adapter, your computer will be able to access 4 U.2 SSDs at the same time
- Hardware Platform: Support Soft RAID in Intel/AMD platform, not support Mac Pro 5.1 (Note: To set up Intel's RAID-on-CPU (VROC), you need to purchase your license)
- Set the PCIe Bifurcation mode of the corresponding PCIe slot in the BIOS, support X4X4X4X4 or Hyper M.2 X16 mode (Note: X8X4X4 or X4X4X8 mode can only recognize 3 U.2 SSDs.)
- Important: Because this adapter does not support PCIe Bifurcation, it requires a motherboard that supports PCIe Bifurcation. Otherwise, only the NVMe-1 port can recognize the NVMe SSD. Before purchasing, please check the PCIe expansion slot part of the motherboard manual on the motherboard manufacturer's website, or consult us directly.
- To reach PCIe 4.0 X4 (64Gbps) full speed, the CPU and motherboard PCIe slot and PCIe M.2 SSD should all be PCIe 4.0 features (Note: PCIe 4.0 is not supported on Intel CPUs below 11th generation)
- Support OS Booting: Reinstall the OS, and set up BIOS/UEFI boot from this U.2 SSD (Note: Some motherboards are too old to support OS booting. In this case, U.2 SSDs can be used as storage disks)
- OS compatibility: Plug-and-play in Windows 11/10/8/Linux/Mac OS (Note: Not support Windows 7). The new U.2 SSD needs to be initialized and formatted before it can be recognized by the computer host.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with Intel Optane 905p's
*by H***Y on October 19, 2024*

𝗧𝗟;𝗗𝗥:The GLOTRENDS PU41 adapter works great with all four Intel Optane 905p 1.5TB drives (all pcie gen 3). Low latency, solid performance, and everything stayed cool under load.---𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄:𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗽:- I used this on an ASUS Pro WS TRX50-SAGE motherboard with an AMD Threadripper 7970X (32 cores), testing in **slot two** (x4x4x4x4 support). I’ll probably move it to the first slot later, as that's better for these types of adapters (closer to the CPU, obv having redrivers on your motherboard would make this really not matter), but it worked fine here for now.𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲:- I ran these drives in a ZFS setup (2 vdev mirror), and performance was right on point. Latency stayed low, and bandwidth doubled compared to just using one drive, as expected. Q1 results were as expected after a bit of ZFS tuning.𝗛𝗲𝗮𝘁:- These Optane 905p drives do get warm, but with the large fans in my Fractal Torrent case, temps stayed around 50°C—well within the safe range (85°C max).𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆:- No need for external power, just plug them into the adapter, and you're good to go. These are Gen 3 drives, so I didn’t get to test Gen 4 speeds, but everything worked as expected for my setup.Overall, the adapter did what it needed to, kept latency low, and had no issues. I will update this review if anything major comes to light.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect!
*by S***B on October 29, 2024*

Card works perfectly with 4x U.2 NVMe on a Dell Precision 5820 with ProxMox. Thought the card was going to be fragile/droopy due to cost but it's very stable. Nice!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Well, but Handle with Care
*by J***H on January 13, 2025*

The U.2 to PCIe adapter works well and does exactly what it’s supposed to, but the build quality is a bit flimsy. You need to handle it carefully during installation to avoid any issues. Once installed, though, it performs reliably. Great value, just wish it felt sturdier.
