Product Slot and Interface Introduction:
NGFF (M.2) KEY-M slot: As a critical component for connecting SSDs, it is designed and
manufactured strictly in accordance with the NGFF (M.2) KEY-M
standard specifications. The layout of the internal gold finger
contact points is reasonable, using high-quality conductive
materials and special gold plating treatment, which has excellent
conductivity and oxidation resistance, ensuring a stable and
reliable electrical connection with the SSD's gold fingers. At the
same time, the slot is equipped with a sturdy fixing structure
around it, which can tightly fix the SSD in the slot through
special buckles or screws (depending on the design of the SSD),
preventing the SSD from loosening or shifting due to vibration or
collision during device operation, ensuring the stable operation of
the SSD and the continuity of data transmission.
EDSFF Gold Finger Output Interface: Designed strictly in accordance with EDSFF standards, its gold
fingers are made of high-quality alloy materials and crafted
through precise processing techniques, with precise dimensional
accuracy and shape tolerances, ensuring precise docking with
equipment that supports EDSFF interfaces. The pin layout inside the
interface is optimized according to the EDSFF signal transmission
specification, with reasonable allocation of power, data, and
control signal lines to ensure high-speed and stable data
transmission. In addition, the interface shell has good shielding
performance, made of metal material and grounded, effectively
blocking external electromagnetic interference, ensuring the
integrity and accuracy of data transmission, and providing strong
support for the efficient operation of the entire storage system.
Transmission advantages:
NVMe protocol performance: SSDs that support NVMe can fully leverage the high-performance
advantages of the NVMe protocol by transferring them through this
expansion card adapter. The NVMe protocol has significant
improvements in data transmission parallelism, instruction
processing efficiency, and delay control compared to traditional
storage protocols. In practical applications, whether it is random
reading and writing of a large number of small files or sequential
reading and writing of extremely large files, it can achieve
extremely fast response speed and efficient data transmission,
greatly reducing the waiting time for data reading and writing,
improving the overall operating efficiency of the system, bringing
users a smooth and efficient data storage and access experience,
and meeting the strict storage performance requirements of modern
data intensive applications.
High speed and stable transmission guarantee: With the EDSFF gold finger output interface and optimized internal
circuit design, this expansion card adapter can achieve high-speed
and stable data transmission. It has a high theoretical
transmission rate, which is sufficient to cope with complex
application scenarios such as concurrent reading and writing of
massive data in data centers, rapid access to high-definition
materials in video editing processes, and large-scale data
processing in scientific computing. At the same time, by using
high-quality signal transmission lines and advanced signal
conditioning technology, signal attenuation and interference are
effectively reduced, ensuring the integrity and accuracy of data
during transmission. Even in complex electromagnetic environments,
stable and reliable data transmission can be guaranteed, avoiding
system lag or data loss caused by data transmission problems.
Usage:
Installing SSD: Firstly, choose a suitable SSD that supports NVMe protocol and has
a size of 2230, 2242, 2260, or 2280mm based on your storage needs
and budget. Carefully align the golden fingers of the SSD with the
NGFF (M.2) KEY-M slot on the expansion card adapter, ensuring
correct orientation. Then, smoothly insert the SSD into the slot
until it is fully inserted and firmly secured by the slot's fixing
structure, avoiding damage to the SSD or slot caused by forced
insertion.
Connect the target device: Connect the EDSFF gold finger output interface of the expansion
card adapter to the corresponding interface on the target device
(such as data center servers, high-performance workstations, and
other devices that support EDSFF interface). When connecting, pay
attention to the correct direction of the interface. Gently insert
the interface of the expansion card adapter into the target device
interface, and then press it evenly to ensure that the interface is
fully inserted and tightly fitted to prevent poor contact. For some
interfaces that require additional fixation, screws or buckles
should be used to firmly fix the expansion card adapter according
to the design requirements of the device, to ensure that it will
not loosen due to vibration during device operation.
System identification and configuration: After completing the hardware connection, start the target device.
The system will automatically recognize the connected SSD during
the boot process, and users can perform operations such as
recognition, partitioning, and formatting on the newly connected
SSD in the disk management tool of the operating system. Depending
on the operating system, the specific steps may vary, but generally
speaking, in Windows systems, users can perform corresponding
operations through the "Disk Management" tool; In Linux systems,
command-line tools such as "fdisk" and "mkfs" can be used to
partition and format hard drives. After completing these basic
configurations, users can store and read data on SSDs just like
using a regular hard drive, and begin to enjoy the convenience
brought by the expanded large capacity and high-speed storage.
