- Lets check out this Sabrent PCIe NVMe SSD card that allows us to add an additional NVMe SSD to the rig when you are out of NVMe slots.

I installed this yesterday with a 1TB drive, straight forward and easy. The drive is fast with no issues. Highly recommend,.
Always leave the "stickers" on, unless specifically instructed to remove them in the manual. These "stickers" are thermally conductive; they spread heat evenly across the chips. Use two of the blue heat pads (or one red if supplied), thin one underneath the NVMe drive and thick one on top (remember to remove the clear plastic protection strips). The third pad (which is divided into little squares) provides an optional heat pad configuration. Instead of the thick one on top, place the individual squares onto the individual chips. This latter option is preferred in some situations, dependent on system airflow, shape of heat sink, etc...
For single sides drives, there is no need to put a pad between the drive and the PCB. Indeed in that case the thin pad would not make contact.
Thanks for this. The supplied instructions don't mention the heat pads at all, they just leave it up to you to guess how they're used.
Yep =- led me to this video :)
I recently bought an HP Turbo pci-e nvme adaptor for my old HP Z 440. Changed one bios setting and it loaded Windows 10. The adaptor cost $29 AU which is $200 AU cheaper than last year. So stoked that my old HP is blazing. I put a Gen 4 HP nvme which also cost me $29 AU into it. Hopefully no throttling issues running at Gen 3 speeds.
Hi, I think that all the 3 supplied thermal pads should be used: the thicker one under the nvme and the 2 thinner on the 2 sides in contact with the heatsink. It create a full sandwich.
Not according to Sabrent. The thick one is too thick to go between the drive and the PCB. The thin one too thin, except for with double sides drives.
That's NOT a sticker, it's a heat spreader and should remain on the drive. Yes it'st sticky and has writing on it, but it's made of a material with fairly high thermal conductivity (the glue probably is high thermal conductivity as well.
No it depends.
Some uses a 100% legit sticker which I always remove.
Then some uses a thermal conductive material w/ letters on it that looks like an sticker I.E. all Intel m.2 wifi card.
If you peel them their hard and impossible to peel feels like thin aluminum when you tried to peel it, so I gave up and due to the feel I just put a pure copper heatsink on the top of the wifi card.
Most m.2 uses stickers they are not thermal conductive.
And all wifi card uses the thing your talking about.
@@gamertechlive1780 you are incorrect. The vast majority of m.2 SSDs nowadays utilize a thermal transfer sticker. You might find a normal sticker on the lowest of low end drives. However you’ll likely just find no sticker at all, since even the most lower end ssd manufacturers have figured out by this point that spending money on a sticker that lowers performance no matter how slightly is a worse idea than just not even adding the sticker in the first place.
@@gamertechlive1780 This just isn't true my guy
I think I need a heat sink on my main drive, it is running 51C where as my RIITOP NVMe Adapter M.2 PCIe SSD to PCI-e x4/x8/x16 Converter Card is only running 30 C
You need to place a thermal pad both to the underside and on top of the SSD
Incorrect, unless you are using a double sided drive.
How do I remove the screw! The unit I got seems to be super duper tight!
Hmm Strange, I did not have any issue taking out any of the screws, they were mostly finger tight with the small screwdriver that came with it
Did you manage to remove them in the end? 3 of my screws are impossible to remove
@@TechworksOnline No they made the screws very cheap for this product, so cheap. The screw driver would just dig in the screw and you couldn't be able to pull them out
Its cause they are rusted... Just got mine out after having to wrap the screw driver for ants with a washcloth and when i got it out the threads were filled with rust.
Ive heard a lot of really good reviews about this product, however I have also heard a lot of ppl saying exactly what youre saying......problems removing and/or screwing in the screws.
why have not used that PCIE x8 Slot instead of x4?
The NVME SSD is only a PCIE 4x capable drive.
For people not able to get the screws undone, you are not crazy, mine had rust in the threads so was extremely difficult to remove.
HP 800 G1 MINI TAVAR Windows not work fast but PCIe x16 , M.2 NVME I SSD not work
Using this adapter board, is it possible to us this adapter as main boot drive without other drives installed?
If the motherboard support nvme boot it should
Will this only support pcie gen 3 mvme like the one you have? Or can it also support pcie gen 4 mvme?
Can it boot from pcie to nvme adapter
Yes it is possible. But completely depends on your motherboard.
The screws on mine are extremely tight & I cannot remove them - managed to remove one but 3 are impossible to remove - very frustrating
Hi mate, yes I managed to. Initially I plan to get refund (sorry I meant exchange) from Amazon. What I did was I push the screw a bit normal force onto the screw, then I turn at the conventional ''unscrew direction.
At the moment, I didnt put the screws (4 of them) back because I dont want to mess with it. My SSD is still yet to be retrieved from a computer.
Importantly is if it doesn't slip, the screw will be less likely to get damaged. It was very tight.
And by the way, I verified with his video to know the unscrew direction.
@@jeeloonghee3894 thanks mate, I’ve tried different levels of force with no success so far. Going to try putting an elastic band between the screwdriver & screw as I read that could help
link to item plz
