The SilverStone SDP13 is an adapter that converts a 3.5" drive bay into M.2 SSD bays, featuring four built-in M.2 slots that support PCIe NVMe M-Key M.2 SSDs in sizes 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110. With dual SlimSAS 8i (SFF-8654) connectors, it enables high-speed data transfer, achieving up to 32Gbps on PCIe 3.0 and up to 64Gbps on PCIe 4.0. Additionally, the adapter supports PCIe bifurcation, allowing a single PCIe slot on the motherboard or expansion card to be divided into smaller PCIe slots, enabling PCIe x16/x8 slots to be split into 4x4/4x2 lane configurations. To prevent the M.2 SSD from overheating and experiencing decline in transfer speeds, the SDP13 features a built-in 60mm fan for effective cooling. The design also includes an independent LED indicator that quickly displays the status of the SSD. The SDP13 provides a significant storage and transfer speed upgrade for existing computers, making it the optimal expansion choice for users seeking high-speed data access and performance.
