    • May or may not fit, depending on its mood.
*: Adapter Style: U.2 (SFF-8639)
This adapter is built in a way that allows for play in the elevation of the board (at the rear)–and thus the connector in relation to the frame it is mounted onto. For that reason and that reason alone I would recommend choosing a different brand, unless you are prepared to perform modifications to solidify it, or do not care that it can move around. The particular adapter I received worked the first few dozen times it was inserted (hot-swappable server drive bay), and then decided out of the blue to not fit anymore and I can't figure out why that is. I do like that it is open-aired so that you can fit SSDs in that have thick heat sinks on them. It is the only adapter I am aware of that has this property. Every other one I have found is an enclosure that leaves little or zero room for a heat sink. ... show more

    • Full PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds through U.2 slot
*: Adapter Style: U.2 (SFF-8639)

U.2 may be dead in the consumer space, but using this adapter we're able to convert the port to a standard M.2 port, since both use PCIe protocol natively. Now I can have 3x M.2 drives on my system natively! I'm pleasantly surprised to see full PCIe 4.0 x4 speeds through this adapter. My U.2 slot goes through the chipset (AMD WRX80), so 6.4 GB/s is about the max we can get. PCIe 4.0 U.2 ports connected directly to the CPU can get up to 7.5 GB/s. This adapter is simple and gets the job done. I do wish some kind of heat sink material was included with this adapter, as PCIe 4.0 M.2 drives tend to run hotter. But probably a non-issue unless you're hammering the M.2 drive with constant IO. Just mount this somewhere near the front of the case so the drive can get some airflow. ... show more

    • Great for M.2 to U.2 if you need it but dont expect it to fit SATA.
*: Adapter Style: U.2 (SFF-8639)
Love the M.2 part. But missed the U.2 output that is NOT SATA and is not compatible with anything that goes to USB. Sigh. Dont make that mistake. Probably great if you have a U.2 port inside your binary bit basher but not gonna be of use to say image an M.2 from a USB port. Dont get me wrong- I have a bunch of Startech interface bits and they all work great but this one was bundled with a cable that isnt compatible with U.2 and left me with no place to plug into. Exchanging it for a PCIe bus card and going to try to run the magic imaging machine all inside a host PC. I know, sounds sick. It is, but the PC gets to keep the M.2 once I am done with it. Fair enough. ... show more

    • Excellent but be careful to get the right one.
*: Adapter Style: U.2 (SFF-8639)
Here is a fine product...even better if you get the right one. My point here is be careful to buy the correct adapter (and probably the SSD for it). I bought the listed unit before I opened the case on my laptop to check the plug type I had. I bring this up because I am a tech and should have known better ! My own machine, for Pete sakes and I messed up. These adapters are great, replacing the old mechanical drives. Of course it’s gotta be the correct one. The moral to the story ? This is an excellent adapter, nice and fast...a perfect compliment to the SSD assuming you get a nice fast SSD. Look ma ! No moving parts except for the fans. ... show more

    • Works as described, as a M.2 to U.2 adapter.
*: Adapter Style: U.2 (SFF-8639)
Anyone who leaves negative reviews on this product about it not working in their SAS server or with SATA drives really needs to STFU and stop tinkering with hardware they don't understand. This product adapters the M.2 form factor to U.2, while leaving the signals intact as-is. Its a plug adapter, essentially. You will need a PCIe endpoint to plug this into, like a bifurcation card with the correct SFF ports. Anywho, using this product with a Samsung 980 NVMe drive in my Dell R720 after upgrading on of the bays with a U.2 backplane + PCIe bifurcation card = great success. ... show more
