Hallo da hast du alle infos [Motherboard] Compatibility of PCIE bifurcation ... - ASUS

Yes, but the requirements of the mainboard must be correct. It is best to ask the mainboard manufacturer or refer to the bios manual.
Will the WD Black SN850X with heatsink fit in there, or would you have to use ones without heatsink?

The WD Black SN850X with heatsink can be installed in the ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 card, but there are a few things to keep in mind:
- The card comes with pre-installed 1mm thick rubber pads that are compatible with double-sided M.2 storage devices. However, if you are installing a single-sided M.2 storage device with a heatsink, you should make sure that the heatsink is not too high to ensure proper mounting and cooling.
- It is important to check the dimensions and height of the heatsink to ensure that it fits into the slots provided and does not interfere with other components of the system.
As a rule, M.2 storage devices with a heatsink should fit without any problems as long as they comply with the standard dimensions (e.g. 2280, 2260, 2242) and the heatsink is not too large. However, it is advisable to check the specific dimensions of the heatsink and the card before installation.

Physically compatible yes, but limited to the bandwidth of your motherboard's PCIe 3.0 x16.
Currently, we have not found any tests or feedback on this product with hardware older than PCIe 4.0 to give further details and guarantee its full functionality. Please note that to enjoy full speed, you need a motherboard with PCIe 5.0 x16.
In order for the BIOS and then also the operating system to recognise and address all possible 4 NVME M.2 SSDs installed on the adapter,
firstly, there must be a PCIe x16 slot on the mainboard that is effectively connected with 16 physical PCIe lanes.
Secondly, this slot must be able to be set in the BIOS to use 4x4x4x4 lanes.
The "magic word" here is bifurcation.
PCIe bifurcation allows a PCIe slot (e.g. a x16 slot) to be divided into smaller blocks (e.g. 4x4x4x4) with regard to the available lanes.
In this way, 4 SSDs can be addressed in a slot connected with 16 physical PCIe lanes,
where an NVME M.2 SSD occupies 4 physical lanes.
Whether a mainboard allows/supports bifurcation for one/more PCIe slot/s can be found in the specification of the mainboard.
Hello Yes they can be accessed individually all 4 NVMe M.2 cards are recognised the bios must support bifurcation

According to the manufacturer, the expansion card supports PCIe 3.0 x16; https://www.asus.com/Motherboar...
How similar is this alternative?
There are other plug-in cards with a different design and corresponding cooling.
Maybe my next one would be without a complete heat sink and I would cool each one individually, or provide it with a heat sink.
The mainboard only supports RAID 10 with SATA SDDs.
With NVME-SSDs, only RAID 0/1/5 is possible.

Hello Hugo,
unfortunately not possible...
The Ryzen processors and mainboards have too few PCIe lanes (24 lanes - 4 for chipset -4 for NVME -16 for graphics card).
Digitec description for your mainboard:
"Two PCIe 4.0 slots in x16 format are available for graphics cards, which are directly connected to the Ryzen 3000 processor via a total of 16 PCIe 4.0 lanes".
You can assign 8 lanes to your graphics card and 2x 4 lanes to the second slot (PCIe bifurcation), so you could equip the card with 2x SSD.

Hi
Here is an overview of the supported boards:
https://www.asus.com/support...
And yes, the Z390-F Gaming is supported.
Instructions on what you need to do in the bios/driver are also included in the link.
LG
Hi
Yes it can.
The full PCIE 4.0 speed.
I have 2x of them in my own computer.
LG
That depends on your mainboard. It must support PCIe Gen 4, which only a few Z490 boards do.

I think not. However, it could be (without guarantee) that if the Sata has never been plugged into a Sata m.2 it will be recognised. Information without guarantee.

So i got the gen 4 well i also bought it new but used but couldn't get it to run at all on my x570 board until now.
Helpful answer
I ordered these a few weeks ago and it was definitely the Gen 4 in the pack.
It should work in any board, that can "divide" the 16x slot
