This 2-in-1 converter adapts M. 2 NVMe/SATA SSD into standard SFF-8639 U. 2 drive form factor, only for devices equipped with native U. 2 host port (PCIe signal bus). It is a passive wiring riser board without any protocol conversion chip inside: When inserting SATA M.
2 SSD: It transmits SATA signal to dual-mode U. 2 port (motherboard U. 2 must support SATA signal to detect drive) When inserting NVMe M.
2 SSD: It transmits PCIe NVMe signal to U. 2 PCIe host port only, CANNOT translate PCIe NVMe signal to SATA bus at all
