BONAEVER Protection Case 2280 NVME

SKU CH-KC9V-REKPY

Holds four 2280 NVME SSDs via a PCIe 4.0 x16 slot with heatsinks, requiring motherboard bifurcation

  • Case styleProtection Case
  • Supports four 2280 NVME drives using PCIe 4.0 bandwidth up to 256 Gbps
  • Heatsink included to cool high-power SSDs drawing up to 6 A each
  • Requires motherboard PCIe bifurcation to split x16 slot into four x4 links
  • RAID-on-CPU (VROC) on Intel and PCIe 4.0 RAID on AMD platforms
  • Low-profile and full-height brackets supplied for flexible case fit

Bonaever 2280 NVMe Protection Case

This protection case houses four M.2 2280 NVMe solid-state drives on a single PCIe x16 add-in card. It delivers up to 256 Gbps of combined throughput using PCIe 4.0 bandwidth. An integrated heatsink manages thermal load during sustained workloads. The card draws 3.3 V power through onboard 6 A modules per drive.

Requires motherboard PCIe bifurcation

The card functions only on motherboards that split a PCIe x16 slot into four x4 links through BIOS bifurcation settings. Without this feature, only one drive will be detected by the system. RAID arrays require four identical drives for consistent performance. Systems lacking bifurcation support cannot use this adapter.

Four-drive NVMe capacity on one slot

Each card accepts four 2280 NVMe modules simultaneously, enabling high-density storage expansion within a single expansion slot. The design supports both PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 3.0 signalling depending on platform capability. This density suits workstations and servers needing maximum NVMe slots.

Questions about this item

Will this expansion card fit in a standard PCIe 3.0 x16 slot on my older motherboard?

The card uses a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface and is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 x16 slots, but your motherboard must support PCIe bifurcation set to x4x4x4x4 for all four 2280 NVME drives to be recognised.

How can I verify that all four SSDs are running at full PCIe 4.0 speed after installation?

Enter the BIOS and confirm the PCIe x16 slot is configured for x4x4x4x4 bifurcation, then check the operating system device manager or NVME utility to see each drive linked at PCIe 4.0 x4.

Does the package include the heatsinks and mounting hardware for the four M.2 drives?

The card ships with an integrated heatsink and both high-profile and low-profile brackets; you must supply four 2280 NVME SSDs and any RAID cables your motherboard requires.
