Pros & Cons

Pros

The card has an option rom making it bootable for older machines. It works perfectly (using samsung 970 evo plus drive) in esxi (7.

The two sata m. Sata drives are blazingly fast. I'm on big sur running radeon pro vii. It performs as fast as the nvme can be as it's on the motherboard's slot.

This card allows for one port multiplier. First slot is used for os drive. Second slot used for project drive for davinci studio and premiere pro.

Competitiveness


This pcie adapter board is well-constructed and functions as a nvm ssd interface for my up z620 cpu.


I've been buying startech products whenever i have an option.


I was hoping to find a solution for my x99 asus deluxe motherboard.


On average, getting 3,500mb/s reads an 3000mb/s writes from each of the installed nvme cards on the adapter.
