If your PC supports booting to a PCIe add in card, you can boot to a very fast M.2 NVMe SSD!
With the prices on M.2 NVMe chips falling through the floor, I want to add an M.2 NVMe chip to every computer I can. Unfortunately, only the newest motherboards have PCIe M.2 slots. I first tried using this board to install an M.2 chip in a Dell Optiplex 9020. When I installed WIndows 10, the installation saw the chip and allowed me to install to it, but the joy ended there, it was not bootable! If I install WIndows 10 on another SATA disk, boot to it, the windows installation will see the M.2 chip, it is considered a Mass Storage Device, but no way to make Optiplex 9020 boot to it. Next, I added it to Dell Precision T5810, now this was a totally different story! As before, I could install Windows 10 to the M.2, but then would not boot. I then updated the BIOS to the very latest, once it rebooted, voila! Windows 10 booted from the M.2 chip on the adapter board! After Windows 10 was up and running I ran Crystal Disk Mark speed test, was only getting about 1500 MB/s read speeds, not bad, but still way below the rating of the M.2 chip. Turns out I had installed the PCIe M.2 adapter in a slower PCIe slot, moved it to a faster slot, rebooted and ran Crystal Mark Disk check again, this time 3400 MB/s, awesome! Moral of story, make sure your PC or motherboard will boot from an M.2 chip mounted on this board, then buy it! And for a great deal on what has so far has been a very impressive M.2 NVMe chip, I can just say 2 words, Inland Premium. Search Amazon for Inland Premium, I chose the 512GB version, have installed at least 10 or more of these, working great so far. Or, you could go for the chip made by the company famous for its failed folding phone and pay over twice as much and get just marginal better performance, choice is up to you!

I bought this twice, both times it worked well.
This device is an excellent little device for reading an NVME in an older computer. I used it to connect an NVME to my Dell PowerEdge R610 server as well as an extra NVME slot on my desktop. It works well, NVME reaches rated speeds, etc. A bit slower on PCI-E 2.0 but that is expected and it is still about twice as fast as a Sata SSD.

Worked great on a Dell Vostro
I can't remember the exact model but it was a Dell Vostro, very common model in the 3's. I had two of them to upgrade. Bought two of these along with some Samsung drives and the machines are flying now. No problems, highly recommend.

You Won't Believe The Increase In Speed
Compared to a Solid-State Drive connected to a SATA port, when the operating system is installed on this adapter, the read/write speeds go way up. The SATA ports are definitely not the best option for an OS on an SSD. If you want still more speed, get an M.2 SSD and connect it directly to the motherboard (requires late model mobo). My EVO 970 has these results: 970 M.2 - Sequential read 3452 MB/s Sequential write 2385 MB/s Random IOPS read 146484 MB/s write 142578 MB/s. That, my fellow gurus, is fast!

Works great
I have a few of these up and running now. They work great, no issues. I have seen it do over 1GBps, probably limited by the SSD itself.

Great for adding to older motherboards.
Bought this to add a Samsung 970 NVMe 1TB into my 2014 desktop running a Hero Maximus VII, because I didn't want to lose the PCI-X lanes. Just dropped it in and it runs great, no drivers or anything else needed.

DOA - Booooooo
Populated with Samsung EVO 970 Plus NVMe M.2 M-key SSD, installed in two PCs but was not recognized in either. Both PCs running Win 8.1. One with X58 chipset and the other with Z87 chipset. Both with 4th Gen Intel i7 CPUs. Neither the BIOS nor the OS recognized the device.

The screws simply don't work
The product seems to work OK but the screw and nut provided to mount the SSD simply don't fit and don't work no matter how you try. One would think that it would be very hard to screw up such a simple thing. But these guys did it. I had a hard time hunting up a screw and nut to secure the SSD in the slot. Absurd!

Full speed no problem.
Adds NVME to older motherboard no problem.

Funziona perfettamente su workstation Dell T5810
Ho controllato prima se il sistema supportasse il boot da PCIe, poi ho acquistato questa scheda e un disco NVMe PCIe M.2 GEN3 X 4 SSD. Funziona perfettamente con il sistema ed è molto veloce. Meglio rispetto a SSD SATA che avevo prima. Installazione facilissima e autoconfigurante con windows 10.
