An expansion card with a PCI-E 3.0 x8 interface has appeared in the Sonnet assortment. The adapter with the plain name M.2 2×4 Low-profile PCIe Card (code number FUS-SSD-2X4-E3S) is designed to install a pair of M.2 drives with a total capacity of up to 16 TB.
The adapter is made in the form of a low-profile expansion card. Supplied with standard and reduced height brackets. A rather massive aluminum radiator is provided for cooling the drives.
The rather high price of $200 recommended is due to the fact that this adapter is equipped with a controller that allows you to combine drives into RAID arrays of level 0 or 1. In the case of RAID0, the speed increases to 6600 MB / s, and RAID1 ensures the safety of data due to their mirroring.
