Vszerda PCIe 5.0 16x to Dual MCIO 8i VROC Adapter
Converts a PCIe 5.0 16x slot into dual MCIO 8i connectors for two SSDs at up to 24 Gbps with built-in DC power modules
- Dual MCIO 8i connectors enable two SSDs from one PCIe 5.0 16x slot
- Up to 24 Gbps data transfer via SFF-TA-1016 Mini Cool Edge IO
- Built-in high-power DC modules deliver stable power for sustained operation
- Requires motherboard with detachable PCIe channels to recognise both drives
- Simple plug-in using 74-pin and 38-pin MCIO ends for quick setup
PCIe 5.0 16x to Dual MCIO 8i Adapter
This Vszerda adapter converts a single PCIe 5.0 16x slot into two MCIO 8i connectors for internal SSD installation. It targets builders adding high-speed storage to motherboards that support bifurcation. The card requires a mainboard with detachable PCIe channels to operate both drives simultaneously.
Motherboard bifurcation requirement
Only motherboards capable of splitting a 16x lane into two 8x links will recognise both attached SSDs. Without that signal split the board detects a single drive. The adapter follows the SFF-TA-1016 pinout and carries 74-pin and 38-pin MCIO ends for direct cabling.
Sustained 24 Gbps transfer with onboard DC power
Integrated high-power DC modules maintain stable voltage during continuous heavy I/O, preventing throttling that short bursts might hide. The design supports prolonged workloads at up to 24 Gbps per channel while keeping signal integrity across the Mini Cool Edge IO interface.

Questions about this item
What does the 24 Gbps figure mean once this adapter is installed in a real machine?
The 24 Gbps rating is the peak throughput each MCIO 8i lane can deliver when the host motherboard splits its PCIe 5.0 16x slot into two 8x channels.
Which interface standard does the MCIO connector follow and what does it cap in practice?
The adapter uses the SFF-TA-1016 Mini Cool Edge IO specification, which caps each 8i link at PCIe 5.0 8x speeds.
What physical space and connectors are needed to mount this adapter?
A free PCIe 5.0 16x slot on a motherboard that supports detachable PCIe channels, plus room for two 74-pin MCIO cables and the onboard DC power modules.
