AXAGON PCEM2-1U internal PCIe adapter for M.2 NVMe SSD (1U, M-key, PCIe x4/x8/x16)
AXAGON PCEM2-1U internal PCIe adapter for M.2 NVMe SSD (1U, M-key, PCIe x4/x8/x16)
PCIe 3.0 x4 speed up to 8 GB/s
Leverage the full performance of NVMe SSDs thanks to PCI‑Express 3.0 x4 bandwidth. Fast OS boot, app launches, and large project loads.
Wide compatibility and easy installation
Works in PCIe x4/x8/x16 slots, supports M.2 NVMe M‑key and B+M key in lengths 2230–2280. Plug & Play with no drivers required.
Cooling and reliability for 1U
Copper ventilation holes and thermal pads help dissipate heat. Ideal for 1U racks and low‑profile cases, with activity LED.
Expand your computer with fast storage without needing a native M.2 slot. The AXAGON PCEM2-1U adapter connects single- and dual-lane M.2 NVMe SSDs in lengths 2230/2242/2260/2280, supports booting, and requires no drivers. Thanks to universal compatibility with PCIe x4/x8/x16 slots, it’s easy to deploy in a desktop or a 1U rack.
For stable performance, the card is equipped with thermally conductive pads and copper ventilation holes. Drive status and activity are clearly indicated by an LED indicator. Power is provided directly from the PCIe bus, so no additional cables are needed.
