M.2 NVMe & SATA to PCIe x4 Adapter Card, SilverStone Technology ECM28, 1U Low Profile, TAA Compliant

SilverStone Technology ECM28 is an adapter card that allows users to install both M.2 NVMe and SATA SSDs in systems with limited space. It is designed for 1U form factor chassis, making it ideal for compact servers, workstations, or high-density storage solutions. The card supports PCIe Gen4 and SATA 6Gbps, ensuring compatibility with modern high-speed drives. It also includes a built-in LED status indicator for easy monitoring of drive activity.

The card features a low-profile design with a total height of 32mm, which fits seamlessly into small form factor cases without interfering with other components. It provides two M.2 slots, one for NVMe (M key) and one for SATA (B key), allowing users to take advantage of both interfaces simultaneously. This dual support makes it a versatile option for systems that require a mix of high-speed NVMe and traditional SATA storage.

Installation is straightforward, as the card connects directly to the motherboard’s PCIe x4 slot. It supports the PCIe CLKREQ# function, which helps in managing clock signals efficiently. The TAA compliance ensures that it meets federal procurement standards, making it suitable for government or enterprise environments. The card is manufactured in Taiwan and comes with the SilverStone brand reputation for quality and reliability.

Users can benefit from this adapter in scenarios where space is limited but storage expansion is needed. It is particularly useful in servers or mini-ITX builds where adding multiple M.2 drives would otherwise be challenging. The ability to use both NVMe and SATA drives concurrently adds flexibility for different performance and capacity needs.
