Green PCIe expansion card with M.2 slot for 2230-2280 NVMe SSDs

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK PCIe 5.0 X4 M.2 NVMe B+M Key Adapter 2230-2280

SKU CH-DNJM-P1JKF

Adds a PCIe 5.0 X4 M.2 B+M Key NVMe slot supporting 2230, 2240, 2260 and 2280 drives for fast desktop storage expansion

  • PCIe 5.0 X4 bandwidth maximises NVMe SSD speed
  • B+M Key slot fits 2230, 2240, 2260 and 2280 drives
  • Works in PCIe X4, X8 or X16 slots for broad motherboard compatibility
  • Optimised circuit design keeps data transfer stable and low-latency
  • Driver-free plug-and-play install adds fast storage in minutes

PCIe 5.0 X4 M.2 NVMe Adapter

This adapter converts a PCIe 5.0 X4 slot into an M.2 B+M Key NVMe port. It supports SSD form factors from 2230 to 2280 and works with PCIe X4, X8 and X16 slots. Designed for high-speed stability, it enables fast storage expansion in desktops, workstations and small servers.

Suits NVMe storage upgrades

Builders adding high-speed NVMe storage to a free PCIe slot will find this card fits standard M.2 lengths without drivers. It does not suit systems lacking a spare PCIe slot or users needing to connect legacy storage interfaces. The B+M Key design is specific to NVMe modules.

PCIe 5.0 X4 bandwidth ceiling

The card runs at PCIe 5.0 X4 speeds, providing the bandwidth headroom current NVMe drives can use. If your motherboard only offers PCIe 4.0 or 3.0 lanes, the adapter will still function but the link will negotiate down to the slot's maximum rate.

Questions about this item

Which M.2 lengths does the adapter accept?

The card supports B+M Key NVMe SSDs in 2230, 2240, 2260 and 2280 form factors, covering the full 22302280 range.

How is the adapter installed in a desktop?

Insert the card into any free PCIe X4, X8 or X16 slot, secure the SSD with the onboard screw, and power on — no drivers are required.

Will the adapter itself need replacement or upkeep?

The passive PCIe 5.0 X4 board has no moving parts or firmware, so it requires no maintenance; only the installed NVMe SSD may eventually wear out.
