M 2 ssd sff 8639 later renamed to u 2 so you actually remember it is another 2 5 ssd like an sata express ssd except u 2 isn t limited by two lanes up 10gb s performance.
M 2 sata cable.
Brief introduction to sata ssd and m 2 ssd.
B key can be m 2 pcie x2 or sata so it is important that you check the specifications of the drive to see if it supports sata.
The maximum cable length of a pata cable is just 18 inches 1 5 feet.
Generally speaking ssd s performance is better than that of hhd.
1 50 x 5 50 x 7 00 h x w x l weight.
The key type refers to the connector type on the m 2 sata drive.
As for real world performance some m 2 ssds are up to four times faster than a sata iii ssd and can single handedly beat two sata ssds in raid 0 easily.

This will assume the speed of the much faster pcie bus.
Sata was announced in 2000 in order to provide several advantages over the earlier pata interface such as reduced cable size and cost seven conductors instead of 40 or 80 native hot swapping faster data transfer through higher signaling rates and more efficient transfer through an optional i o queuing protocol.
However while a pata data cable can have two devices attached to it at once a sata cable allows just one.
Sata cables can be as long as 1 meter 3 3 feet which provides some freedom to choose where devices can be mounted.

Similarly if you attempt to install an m 2 pcie into an m 2 sata only slot it will not work.
Add in cards like the one shown here allows you to convert a sata only m 2 into a pcie m 2.
This four drive m 2 sata adapter and mounting bracket lets you add up to four m 2 solid state drives in the same space as a single 3 5 sata drive.
Maximize system speed and performance the m 2 adapter increases overall storage potential by installing four m 2 ngff next generation form factor ssds in a standard 3 5 drive bay.
As we all know compared with hhd hard drive disk ssd solid state drive has advantages of faster read write speed smaller size no noise and so on click comparison among ssd hdd and sshd to know more.
This device can adapt an m 2 sata drive to standard sata connections which is not possible for a pcie based m 2 drive.
