ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 PCIe 3.0 X4 Expansion Card V2 Supports 4 NVMe M.2 (2242/2260/2280/22110) Upto 128 Gbps for Intel VROC and AMD Ryzen Threadripper NVMe Raid

AWESOME PCIE 3.0 Expansion card for 4 M.2’s
THIS.. is Asus Pcie expansion for M.2 and it was a great, convenient product from a brand you trust! This Pcie expansion card fits 4 M.2 cards HOWEVER!! It is at Pcie 3.0 and not 4 so please do not waste your money on newer M.2’s and just get the best value Pcie 3.0 M.2.This product is perfect for a pcie expansion! It comes with everything you will need INCLUDING the retaining screws. It is well built in a polished metal, easy to assemble and comes with thermal pads attached to the housing so it all runs cool.This expansion card gave me exactly what I needed and looks great in my system! With the ability to keep throwing M.2’s in my system I no longer have to worry about sata cables, opening up the back of my case and managing that demon. This has been a great product for my computer, and I am sure you will find this as another great asus product just like I have!

Poor/mixed documentation, but works well if you can get it going
I’m running this on an ASUS X370-F Gaming (AM4) with a Ryzen 3950X. I’ve currently got 2 Sabrent 4TB SSDs in it with full R/W speeds on Windows.If you’re on an AM4 socket, you should only expect to get 2 SSDs working on it if you have a dedicated GPU. I’ve got a GPU taking up my first x16 slot and this card in my second. AM4 and X370 chipset doesn’t provide enough lanes for a dedicated GPU and an x16 link to this card. B550 apparently has some extra lanes built into the chipset, so that *might* be an option for getting all 4 slots going once it’s released.I did not need to install any drivers to get this working (though I did install some as part of troubleshooting.) Note that the four slots on the card are numbered, and on an x8 PCI-E slot, *only drives 1 and 2 will be enabled.* (Numbering starts at 1 in the top slot.)The card itself isn’t recognized by Windows or the BIOS, so there’s no easy way to tell whether or not the card is being detected if an SSD isn’t showing up. To get it to work, in the BIOS I:- Enabled “Hyperkit Mode” in SATA device options- Set its PCI-E slot to run in “NVMe RAID” mode (despite not using RAID)- Disabled CSM completely in boot optionsAfter that my drives showed up in Windows as though the card wasn’t there. Keep in mind that a BIOS update will probably reset all your settings so you’ll need to re-apply them after updating.The fan on this this is noticeably loud. There is a switch on the PCI bracket for easily turning the fan on and off, which is MUCH appreciated. I’ve done some minor testing with my 2 drives in there and they only ever got up to ~55C with the fan off. I suspect it’s unnecessary unless you’ve got 3+ drives installed and are hitting them all fairly regularly. The heatsink is super beefy.Documentation can be conflicting or outright missing, but if you’re looking at something like this, you should expect to deal with those sorts of annoyances anyway. I can *tentatively* recommend this card if you have enough PCI-E lanes available to get the most out of it. Otherwise I’d recommend a cheaper dual-mount card, which should perform as well as this.

冷却と見た目の目的で購入。M/B側で、PCI-E x16スロットの設定を、x16 → x4,x4,x4,x4に変更できないと、使用できませんので要注意です。ちなみにx8 → x4,x4とした場合は、No1とNo2のみ認識し、No3とNo4は認識しません。BIOSで設定できない場合は、No1のみ認識します。あとPCI-Eのレーン数も影響するので、注意を。

There seems to be a lot of misinformation about this card and I hope that my experience will help to clear up some of the thud! Note that I am not using Intel or other supported drives so I will not cover VROC here and my aim with this card was to simply add some additional NVME drives to my system.Firstly, for this card to work with more than one drive you will need a motherboard & a version of BIOS that supports PCI Bifurcation. I’m using this card in a Maximus X Hero (Wifi-AC) Z370 motherboard with BIOS 2203 (2019/10/17).The Maximus X Hero supports PCI Bifurcation on PCIEX16/8_1 or PCIEX8_2. As I’m using a discrete GPU in the first slot I have the Hyper M.2 card plugged into PCIEX8_2. PCI Bifurcation “splits” the x8 slot into 2 x4, thus supporting 2 x NVME drives. If I was not using a discrete GPU then I would be able to support 4 x NVME drives in my system. If you need to support 4 drives and a discrete CPU then you’ll need X299 or an NVME carrier card with a PLX chip such as the one’s from HighPoint $$$!My GPU is now running at x8 not x16 due to the limited PCI Express lanes on Z370. I also have an Asus PCE-AC88 Wifi card connected to the system along with NVME drives in each of the two motherboard M.2 slots.As other reviews have covered, the build quality of the card is simply excellent, basically it’s a large, very nicely machined aluminium heatsink. I have the internal fan disabled as it can be a little noisy but I also don’t find that it is required. I live in Asia with an ambient temperature of over 30 Degrees yet my Intel 660p and Adata SX8200 Pro peak at 46 degrees.Overall this is a fantastic card for adding additional drives to systems that support PCI Bifurcation!
