UGREEN M.2 NVMe to PCIe 3.0 Adapter Card with M.2 SATA – CM302

UGREEN M.2 NVMe to PCIe 3.0 Adapter Card with M.2 SATA – CM302

The UGREEN CM302 adapter card transforms standard PCIe slots into high-speed M.2 NVMe storage solutions while maintaining compatibility with SATA-based M.2 drives. This versatile expansion card enables desktop systems to utilize modern M.2 storage technology for significant performance improvements over traditional hard drives. Additionally, the dual-compatibility design supports both NVMe and SATA M.2 drives without requiring separate adapters or configuration changes.

Advanced PCIe 3.0 interface maximizes data transfer speeds through optimized lane utilization and efficient signal routing. The CM302 delivers full NVMe performance potential by providing dedicated PCIe lanes directly to the M.2 drive without bandwidth sharing or bottlenecks. Therefore, users experience dramatically improved boot times, application loading, and file transfer speeds compared to conventional storage solutions. Meanwhile, the low-profile design accommodates various system configurations and clearance requirements.

Professional installation features simplify the upgrade process through tool-free M.2 mounting and standard PCIe card installation procedures. The adapter includes all necessary mounting hardware and thermal management components to ensure optimal drive performance and longevity. Furthermore, the universal compatibility supports most desktop motherboards with available PCIe slots. The plug-and-play operation also eliminates complex driver installations or BIOS modifications for immediate storage recognition.
