ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card in Black - HYPER-M.2-X16-GEN5-C

Support RAID Function

The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card is able to support RAID functions across different CPU platforms. For ultimate flexibility ; unused CPU PCIe lanes can be assigned to storage to create a bootable RAID array with up to four M.2 SSDs.

One Card; 8X The Bandwidth

The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card uses PCIe 5.0; which offers twice the bandwidth per lane compared to PCIe 4.0. With four M.2 slots; it enables up to 512 Gbps of bandwidth per card - 8X the bandwidth of a single PCIe 4.0 drive.

Enhanced Cooling

The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card not only enhances hardware but also incorporates advanced software solutions for efficient thermal management; effectively dissipating heat to keep SSDs at optimal temperature for unwavering performance.

Effective Thermal Solution: A full-cover heatsink that attaches to the M.2 SSD and features air duct and blower-style fan. Plus; the four M.2 slots are supported by top and bottom thermal pads to reduce temperature-induced throttling during heavy; sustained data transfers.

Fan Xpert 4 Support: The integrated blower-style active fan easily connects to the motherboard chassis fan header; allowing users to adjust fan speed in ASUS Fan Xpert 4.

Designed For Unthrottled Transfer Speeds

The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card has four M.2 slots - supporting both PCIe 5.0 and 4.0 - that allow users to supplement entire Designed for latest-generation NVMe drives; the card features a stable power supply that provides up to 14 watts of power per drive. The card also supports RAID functions across four M.2 slots ;providing up to 128 GT/s bandwidth per M.2 slot.
