Product Overview
This adapter card is based on the B650 southbridge chip and transforms a native motherboard chipset into a standard PCIe expansion device. Via a PCIe 4.0 x4 upstream interface, it provides four M.2 NVMe slots (two on the front supporting x4, two on the back supporting x2), four SATA 6Gbps ports, two 10Gbps USB-A ports, one 10Gbps USB-C port, and one 20Gbps USB-C port. Its M.2 interfaces feature intelligent bandwidth allocation: when only the front dual-drive slots are in use, both operate on x4 links when all four slots are occupied, the system automatically adjusts to x2 links(The interface shares the PCIe 4.0 x4 upstream speed). This card is suitable for high-end PCs, workstations, media processing, NAS systems, and gamers, providing a one-stop expansion solution for high-density storage and high-speed peripherals.
Product Overview

• M.2 Ports
- Compliant with PCI Express Base Specification Version 4.0
- Compliant with PCI Express M.2 Specification Version 1.1
- Supports PCI Express link power management
- Supports M.2 form factors: 2230/2242/2260/2280
- Supports M.2 M Key
- Supports four standard M.2 interfaces, with the two front M.2 interfaces (M.2_A, M.2_C) supporting X4 links, and the two rear interfaces (M.2_B, M.2_D) supporting X2 links.
Note: When all M.2 slots are occupied, all four M.2 slots operate at x2 bandwidth. If only the two front M.2 slots are used, they operate at x4 bandwidth; if only the two rear M.2 slots are used, they operate at x2 bandwidth.
