## Questions & Answers

**Q: can this be used to add m.2 support to a board that doesn't have an m.2 slot? I'm pairing it with an older (but nice) 1155 motherboard**
A: Yes it should work, but depending on the motherboard BIOS it may not be supported as a boot device.

**Q: Does it work with samsung 950 m.2 ssd for mac pro 2010 version??**
A: The one answer is wrong from 2016 as of 2019 see this now fully supported and working = https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/blade-ssds-nvme-ahci.2146725/

**Q: Will this fit in a mac pro late 2013? i'm wanting to convert the exisiting pcie to m.2 using this adapter, so i can add a samsung pro 960 to it.**
A: The 2013 Mac Pro doesn’t use a standard PCIe anyways so this wouldn’t serve much purpose.

**Q: As long as a mobo has a pcie 3.0 4x slot then m.2 nvme ssd can be installed on it using adapters but to boot from it a mobo needs firmware support?**
A: Yes, the motherboard needs to support booting from NVMe. Most motherboards from Intel after 2013(so 2014+) support it, some other ones have support that are older(I run an Intel Core i5-4750t on an ASRock motherboard and it had support for NVMe added in December 2017) You'll probably need to flash any motherboard prior to 2015 for support, though(Assuming the mobo has any updates that support NVMe booting)

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great with Z97 motherboard and PCIEX expansion for Apple iMac and Samsung NVME SSD drives.
*by B***2 on December 27, 2018*

I have been using this SIIG NVME adapter for 7 months now and it works great. I use it to add a Samsung 970 EVO NVME to my Gigabyte z97n motherboard. It works great! Ubuntu Desktop 16 boots to the login prompt in about 3 seconds (after the BIOS screen displays, of course). I already had the most up to date BIOS on the motherboard, so the NVME hardware was recognized by the BIOS and worked with no additional driver or tweaking necessary.In the past, when using a 3.5" hard drive, it took nearly a minute to boot Ubuntu 16.I am very pleased with the performance and also the build quality of this SIIG NVME adapter. The Samsung NVME fit perfectly with no problem during installation. I am going to buy another one.Update: I bought another SIIG NVME and paired it with a Samsung 970 PRO NVME 512 SSD. I installed Windows 10 from a USB drive. Initial installation phase of Windows 10 took about 10 minutes. After rebooting, I completed the rest of the setup/configuration in about another 10 minutes. Windows10 boots in less than 10 seconds and applications launch almost instantly. This is a fantastic improvement over a typical Hard drive with spinning platters.Update June 2019:I bought a 3rd card and installed it in an external pciex expansion chassis for a couple Apple Mac computers that run Mac OS High Sierra. This card works perfectly with the Apple computers and operating system.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly GREAT performance.
*by C***M on September 23, 2020*

Based on initial impressions, I would definitely recommend this for anyone needing an additional M.2 slot. I wanted to use 3 M.2 drives for my build, 1TB 970 EVO Plus as OS & programs drive, 1TB Intel 660p storage drive, and my old 512GB 970 Pro for commonly used files & media. However, my motherboard only has 2 M.2 storage slots, so I bought this to be able to still use my 970 Pro SSD.SIIG reader didn't need any drivers installed (already have the Samsung NVMe 3.3 driver installed), just attached my old 512GB Samsung 970 Pro NVMe SSD to the reader, and plugged it into a PCIe x8 slot. Out of the box, it's getting better synthetic benchmark performance Vs plugged into the 2nd M.2 slot on the motherboard which now houses my 1TB storage card.I've attached 2 photos, the first one is with the 970 Pro card plugged into the motherboard M.2 slot, second is the 970 Pro plugged into the SIIG reader. I was surprised to see slightly better benchmark performance out of the SIIG reader.Motherboard: EVGA Z370 Classified K running Windows 10 pro all software and driver updates installed.ONLY con: Cannot be setup to boot from the SIIG board on my computer, not sure if other motherboards can boot from it or not.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfectly, only con is that it limits the speed by ALOT.
*by B***O on October 15, 2022*

My ssd (WD_BLACK SN750) has a rating of 3430 MB/s, but when I tested it, it only reached about 450 max. It might just be because of my motherboard and the fact that I used a x1 port. Overall still a great buy compared to me having to buy a new motherboard.
