M.2 NVMe to USB Type-E Adapter

The RIITOP NV2E-20GH converts a spare M.2 M-key slot into an internal USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Type-E header. It uses an ASMedia ASM3242 controller to provide 20Gbps bandwidth to a front-panel USB-C port. An aluminium heatsink keeps the controller cool during sustained transfers. A 4-pin floppy power connector supplies stable power for the adapter.

Ideal for Compact Builds

This adapter suits builders who have a free M.2 slot but no spare PCIe slot in a small chassis. It adds high-speed front-panel USB-C without using expansion slots. It is not for users who lack an M.2 M-key slot or who need to charge devices from the front port. The USB Type-E header supports data transfer only, not charging.

ASMedia ASM3242 Controller

The ASM3242 chipset delivers the full 20Gbps link speed over USB 3.2 Gen 2x2. Driver installation is required on Windows XP, Vista, 7 and Server 2003, 2003R2, 2008, 2008R2. Windows 8.x, 10, 11 and Server 2012, 2012R2, 2016, 2019, 2022 support plug-and-play operation.
