NFHK NGFF M-Key NVME Male to Female Extension Cable 40cm with SFF-8654 Connector for Mainboard SSD 2280/22110

The extender worked perfectly so I could use an old drive out of a laptop in my new mini pc.

Inexpensive and works exactly as shown.

Bought this to test and see if I can use the WWAN port on my Dell Latitude 5401 as an extra storage location and I am glad to report it worked. The WWAN port on my laptop can fit a 42mm NVME (2242) with a B+M key. With this adapter you can use the faster PCIE NVME but the 30mm (2230) NVME for it fit the WWAN port. The NVME I was able to test the adapter with was a spare SK Hynix BC511 512GB Gen3 2230 NVME. My laptop was able to recognize the said NVME as a spare drive and as a main drive when I installed Windows 11 Pro. Lastly, there were no speed degradation on the NVME tested whether it was a spare drive or as the main OS drive.

I bought this to add an NVME M.2 SSD to my 2011 Mac Pro (model 5,1). Works great! Obviously only at Gen 2 PCIE speeds due to the Mac Pro’s motherboard.Has some issue with Samsung SSDs, but I haven't been able to determine if that’s the Mac or the adapter. All other SSDs I’ve tried work well.

Bought it to add a pcie nvme ssd in the latitude WWAN port. The b+m slot allows your to add a nvme pcie card and get to the right size (2242) so that the drive can be secured with a screw to the motherboard. This allows you to have a second ssd in your dell latitude 7300 laptop (ymmv) for dual boot/backup etc. Didn't notice any slow down using the adapter. Had it for a week where I formatted , restored an image and booted off the drive using uefi. The speed when booting off the drive was acceptable. I tested with a kioxia 256 mb and a samsung 991a 2230 nvme ssd.

Had to send it back and go another direction. Cable to PC slot end came broken right out of the bag. After seeing this I would not trust a replacement or how long would it last when installing.

I have an HP Omen 870-244 and the NVME slot is beneath where the graphics card is. There's zero room for a heatsink on the NVME drive.This adapter allowed me to relocate the drive for airflow and so I could put this on it as well:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08G823MLDNow it's located in front of an exhaust fan and staying VERY cool so no more thermal throttling and speed reduction.This is an excellent niche device.I just zip tied it to the board so it'd stay put. Excellent device.

I used this adapter to use a spare 2230 nvme in a nucbox 5, which only accepts 2242. The nucbox 5 has a very narrow space to install the nvme, so any additional width would cause issue, but this adapter is a perfect fit and is flush with the sides of the nvme.
