Sabrent EC-TFPE Reviews

Works Great in PCIe x8 Slot

By Peter

Rated 5 out of 5

Date: 2025-03-26

Works just like any other internal drive. Used the Partition Manager/Disk Manager to configure the drives mount at boot. If you don't configure to mount at boot, it looks like a removable external thumb-drive - works but requires interactive clicks to mount. I have 2 of these in my Linux tower system (Dell P5860). They are installed in PCIe x8 slots. (The little cuts in the connector edge make this compatible with x8 and x16 slots. Might work in an x4 because x4 is sufficient bandwidth for 1 drive but I did not test x4.) Samsung SSD 980 Pro 2TB M.2 Internal (no heat sink) installed in each one. There are thermal conducting sticky pads included with the product - you need to peel the clear tape off of those and install one under the SSD to assure optimal heat transfer else the SSD will self-limit performance or perhaps overheat. I suggest getting the newer offering - presently PCIe 4.0 support - which is faster when used in systems that support PCIe 4.0 than older offering that supports PCIe 3.0. I have both adapters, both work in the PCIe 4.0 system.

Does this work in a PCI Express x16 slot, running at x4 (PCIEX4) on a Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H motherboard? I need it for an M.2 SSD

Asked by: bamk

The Sabrent NVMe M.2 SSD to PCIe Adapter Card with Aluminum Heatsink, B&H # SAECTFPE, can be installed in a PCIe x16 slot wired for x4; keep in mind that this will have an impact on the read and write speed of the SSD.
