M.2 A Key to M Key Adapter Board

This adapter board converts an M.2 A-key slot into an M-key interface, accepting 2230, 2242, 2260, and 2280 form-factor devices. It functions only with modules that communicate through a PCIe channel. Two onboard LEDs provide status feedback, with LED1 illuminating on successful drive detection and LED2 remaining off by default. An optional USB adapter cable enables conversion for external connectivity.

Suitable for PCIe M.2 devices in A-key slots

The board suits makers and developers adapting A-key sockets for M-key SSDs that use PCIe signalling. It does not support modules that rely on other signalling methods, so buyers needing compatibility with non-PCIe devices should look at alternative solutions. The USB conversion feature adds flexibility for test bench or portable workflows.

PCIe-only signalling requirement

The single decisive specification is that the adapter only operates with devices equipped with a PCIe channel. Any M.2 module lacking this interface will not function regardless of its keying or physical dimensions. Verify the drive's signalling protocol before purchase.
