PCI to PCI Express Adapter Card by Startech

The StarTech PCI to PCI Express Adapter Card allows users to install low-profile PCIe expansion cards into a standard 32-bit PCI slot on a motherboard. This adapter is ideal for users looking to upgrade or extend the capabilities of older systems that lack PCIe slots but still have available PCI slots. It provides a practical way to use modern PCIe cards without needing to replace the entire motherboard.

The adapter includes a spare full-size bracket, making it compatible with both low-profile and standard-sized PCIe cards. This flexibility ensures that it can be used in a variety of desktop and server environments. The innovative bracket design securely holds the PCIe card in place, reducing the risk of physical damage or poor contact during installation.

Installation requires a free 32-bit PCI slot on the motherboard and a compatible PCIe card. The adapter is designed for ease of use, with no additional software or drivers needed. It is particularly useful for users who want to add modern peripherals or components to older systems without upgrading the entire platform.

This adapter is well-suited for IT professionals, system builders, and enthusiasts who need to maximize the potential of existing hardware. It is especially helpful in scenarios where upgrading the motherboard is not feasible due to cost or compatibility constraints.
