1. Ugreen M.2 NVME to PCI Express 3.0 x4 Adapter Card
Increase the performance of your computer. With the UGREEN CM302 adapter, you can use M.2 SSDs on devices with PCIe 3.0 slots. Enjoy fast transfers of up to 32 Gbit/s, play dynamic games without interruption and forget about system crashes. The product is characterised by its broad compatibility. It also has an additional SATA input and an LED indicator. The set also includes the tools required to install the adapter.
Do you feel that your computer is not efficient enough? Now you can change that. With the help of the UGREEN adapter, you can easily install a high-speed SSD M.2, which, among other things, allows you to achieve transfer rates of up to 32 Gbps, which means that 1 GB of files can be transferred in just about 7 seconds. You will also launch your games faster.
2. LSI MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i: 8-Port Raid Controller
Additionally, the speed of data transmission plays a crucial role. With a speed of twelve gigabytes per second, the MegaRaid SAS 9361-8i is distinguished by exceptional data security standards. Thanks to technological innovations and the features of the interface, hard disk drives (HDDs) can be better scaled. Furthermore, the performance advantages of solid-state drives can be further enhanced by the high speed and suitable interfaces. The MegaRAID SAS 9361-8i is equipped with the latest technological standards. The twelve gigabytes per second speed at SAS connections is twice as fast as that of older ports of the same type. This allows for the full utilization of the capabilities of the PCI Express 3.0 interface. In current political and technical discussions, data security is a significant topic. The CacheVault Flash Cache security module offers the highest security standards. Additionally, the MegaRAIDs are equipped with a special enterprise feature that includes advanced drive diagnostic technology. As soon as a drive incurs physical damage, the RAID interface automatically switches to a safety mode. An automatic investigation is then conducted to determine the extent of the damage. Of course, there is the option to enhance the product with additional software, which can further elevate both performance and data security to a higher level.
3. ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 Card
