Green PCB adapter with full-length PCIe x16 slot and two slim MCIO 8i connectors, silver brackets

Fervit

Fervit Dual MCIO 8i SFF-TA-1016 VROC PCIe 5.0 x16 Adapter

SKU CH-K690-X5H5B

Connects two MCIO 8i SSDs via a PCIe 5.0 x16 slot with up to 24 Gbps transfer

  • Fast, reliable SSD data transfer at 24 Gbps
  • Stable operation from built-in high-power DC modules
  • Flexible signal routing with Mini Cool Edge IO design
  • Broad compatibility supporting SAS 3.0/4.0 and PCIe 5.0
  • Controls two drives via detachable PCIe 8x motherboard channel

Dual MCIO 8i VROC Adapter

The Fervit Dual MCIO 8i SFF-TA-1016 adapter connects two MCIO 8x SSDs to a single PCIe 5.0 x16 slot using VROC technology. Built-in high-power DC modules deliver stable operation for data-centre, networking and telecom workloads. It supports SAS 3.0/4.0, PCIe Gen 3/4/5 and 25G Ethernet at 56 GT/s PAM4.

Builders with bifurcating motherboards

This card suits builders whose motherboards can split a PCIe 5.0 x16 lane into two x8 links, allowing both SSDs to be seen simultaneously. Systems without PCIe bifurcation support will recognise only one drive. Buyers needing more than two MCIO devices or a different connector type should consider other solutions.

Internal MCIO cabling and slot use

The adapter installs internally through MCIO connectors and occupies one full-length PCIe 5.0 x16 slot. It frees standard drive bays and M.2 sockets by moving high-speed storage to the expansion area. A motherboard with detachable PCIe channels is required for dual-drive operation.

Questions about this item

What motherboard feature is required for the adapter to control both SSDs?

The motherboard must provide a detachable PCIe 8x channel that can bifurcate the x16 link so each MCIO 8i port receives an independent x8 signal path.

Will a PCIe 4.0 SSD connected through this adapter run at its rated speed?

Yes, the adapter supports PCIe Gen 3, 4 and 5, so a Gen 4 drive will operate at up to 16 GT/s per lane without signal loss.

How can I confirm the adapter is passing data at the full 24 Gbps per port after installation?

Run a sequential read/write test on each SSD and verify sustained throughput approaches 24 Gbps; the link should also report PCIe 5.0 x8 or SAS 4.0 in the system hardware monitor.
