ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card Adaptador PCIe 5.0 M.2 com refrigeração ativa

The ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card (PCIe 5.0/4.0) is an M.2 adapter for desktop PCs that provides four NVMe M.2 slots (2242/2260/2280/22110) via a PCIe x16 connection. It supports PCIe 5.0 bandwidth and includes active cooling with a full-cover heatsink, thermal pads and a blower-style fan. The card enables high-throughput storage configurations and can be used to create RAID arrays across multiple CPU platforms when unused CPU PCIe lanes are available.

Advantages

The card delivers up to 512 Gbps total bandwidth per card by combining four M.2 slots on a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, offering significantly higher throughput than PCIe 4.0 devices. It incorporates a full-cover heatsink, top and bottom thermal pads and an integrated blower fan that connects to a motherboard chassis fan header for adjustable cooling. Support for RAID across the four M.2 slots increases flexibility for bootable or high-performance multi-drive arrays. The design supplies stable power to modern NVMe drives and supports both PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 4.0 SSDs.

Suitable for

• High-bandwidth storage expansion in desktop PCs
• RAID arrays using multiple NVMe M.2 SSDs
• Workloads requiring sustained sequential throughput (video editing, large file transfers)
• Systems where additional M.2 capacity is needed without changing the motherboard

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 290 mm x 122 mm x 15 mm
• Colour: Black

How to use

Install the ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen5 Card into a free PCIe x16 slot on a compatible desktop motherboard. Mount NVMe M.2 SSDs into the provided M.2 slots (2242/2260/2280/22110) and secure them according to the card’s installation guide. Connect the integrated blower-style fan to a motherboard chassis fan header to enable adjustable fan control through motherboard utilities such as ASUS Fan Xpert 4. If you plan to use RAID, configure the RAID array in your system’s firmware or RAID management utility and ensure any required CPU PCIe lanes are assigned to storage according to your platform documentation.

Recommendations

For sustained high-throughput workloads, ensure the blower fan is connected and fan profiles are configured to maintain effective airflow. When creating RAID arrays, follow motherboard and CPU vendor instructions about lane allocation and boot settings. Use SSDs that are compatible with PCIe 5.0 or PCIe 4.0 and check the card’s mechanical compatibility with your chassis and cooling layout before installation.
