StarTech M2-REMOVABLE-PCIE-N1 M.2 NVMe PCIe x4 Slot

Convert a PCIe expansion slot into a removable M.2 NVMe storage bay and keep high-speed flash accessible without opening the chassis for every service event. The StarTech M2-REMOVABLE-PCIE-N1 is designed for systems that need NVMe performance, clean integration, and practical drive handling in one package. It supports PCIe x4, x8, and x16 slots and is built for M.2 NVMe SSDs up to 2280. With read/write capability up to 64 Gbps, it gives infrastructure teams a way to expose fast storage through a standard expansion slot while maintaining a service-friendly tray design. Toolless drive installation, a lockable tray with two keys, and a vented frame all point to the same goal: reduce friction during deployment and maintenance. The included low-profile bracket broadens compatibility in compact systems, while PCI Express 4.0 and 3.0 support helps it fit into mixed-generation environments. For teams balancing performance, access, and physical constraints, this adapter offers a disciplined way to make NVMe storage easier to deploy and maintain.
