The ASUS HYPER M.2 X16 GEN5 CARD is a high-performance expansion card that supports up to 4*M.2 NVME SSD devices on both AMD and Intel platforms. With PCIe Gen5 speed, it offers up to 128GT/s bandwidth per M.2 slot, allowing for a maximum speed of up to 512GT/s total with 4 slots. The card features a thermal heatsink and active blower-style fan to effectively dissipate heat from the M.2 NVME devices, preventing temperature-induced throttling that can impact performance during heavy storage loads. The server-grade PCB supports up to four PCIe 5.0/4.0 M.2 drives with up to 512 Gbps bandwidth for smooth data transfers. It also includes a 6-pin PCIe Power connector and a two-phase power solution with up to 14-watt output to support the latest NVMe drives. The large heatsink, top and bottom thermal pads, and active fan work together to reduce M.2 SSD temperatures, ensuring unthrottled transfer speeds and enhanced reliability. Additionally, the card supports RAID functions across different platforms, allowing users to create a bootable RAID array with up to four M.2 SSDs.
