Well worth it for (reduced) price, does what it says on the tin.
Not much to complain about, got the gen3 unit refurbished since it was $40 to use in my current Epyc test box which is soon to be a proxmox machine. Was going to go with 2 sata boot drives and 2 m.2 for VM storage but with this I can boot off M.2 and use 2 more for VM's with 2 spare slots for whatever I might want to do ad I don't think I'll need gen4 speeds for what this machine will be doing. I have another 'no name' 4x gen 3 adapter and that one also works fine but with no fan on it some drives could get uncomfortably warm, I'll find some use for that somewhere else. And yes you need bifurcation on your motherboard for this to work, otherwise you need a significantly more expensive switched unit. Even at $60 this would be a good buy but if you want a gen4 unit get the gen5 instead, as of right now (Feb 2024) they are either the same price or the gen5 is cheaper but still almost double the price of the gen3 version.

You'll need to enable the x4x4x4x4 bifurcation in your BIOS settings. Then it works like a charm. I'm able to get 10GB/s sequential read. Given that PCI-e 3.0 drives are still a lot cheaper than PCI-e 4.0, this looks like a good deal to me.

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2021
I managed to make this work in an Intel build with a "Gigabyte Z490 Vision G" motherboard, with 3 nvme ssds; it won't support 4. The reason is a rather complicated affair having to do with PCIe bifurcation/switch support in the CPU; anything less than an X299 Motherboard + LGA 2066 chip will /not/ support bifurcation of an x16 PCIe to x4+x4+x4+x4, which is what this card needs to host 4 ssds (or a server chipset/chip build). More commonly, motherboards like mine support either x16, or x8+x8, or x8+x4+x4. Note this switching is even independent of your actual slots in the motherboard; my motherboard has a third physical x16 slot controlled by the chipset, to allow the first two to operate at full x8+x8 and still get an additional x4 (where without the chipset support, the three slots will run x8+x4+x4). So anyway, the issue is each ssd needs x4 and needs it switched because the card itself does not have a PCIe switch (which would add latency anyway). If your motherboard supports setting x8+x4+x4 bifurcation in the bios, you can either have 3 ssds in the card in the first slot (and nothing in the second), or you can have something else in the first slot (say, a graphics card running at x8) and two ssds in this card in the second slot. I am running with the "3 ssds in card, first slot, nothing second" configuration; I haven't tried two ssds in the second slot, so caveat emptor. I arranged the 3 ssds like the support page advices (search for "asus hyper m.2 support motherboard"), meaning you need to leave the second position empty.

I bought this and two Crucial T500 NVME modules ( without heat spreader ) that I configured in a RAID1 mirror. The modules are pcie 4.0 capable, but my computer only has pcie3.0 which is limiting the performance. Still, I am seeing large block reads peak at 6435 and writes at 3144 MB/s. By comparison, a single mid-range SATA SSD gave 558 and 507 MB/s. This is where pcie NVME shines. For random access the drives will be the limiting factor and even SATA overhead becomes secondary.

As others have said, your motherboard _must_ support pcie bifurcation to use more than one NVME drive, and you must have a full-width ( x16 ) spare slot with enough pcie lanes for the number of drives that you want to install. For one NVME drive you could get by with a pcie x4 slot. For two, an x8 slot _and_ bifurcation support is required, and for three or four an x16 slot _and_ bifurcation support. Note that the physical width of the slot is not a guarantee of having enough lanes - check the documentation on your computer or motherboard. Many, many motherboards have only a single x16 slot which is typically used for the graphics card, and an x8 slot, then either nothing more or a very small one. The Xeon boards or systems designed for workstation use are likely to be well equipped. Some new graphics cards with pcie 4.0 get by with an x8, which would allow this NVME card to use the x16. Keep in mind that any network card faster than 1G will also need at least an x4 slot.

I should add that these modules were configured in a mirror using Intel's VROC, and the motherboard has a VROC dongle to enable the functionality. The computer boots from this mirror without needing any other drives.

One caveat: the board is pretty heavy due to the aluminum heatsink. It is not exactly secure in a pcie socket but should be fine if the system is not being moved around.
Second caveat: the system's drive LED is not connected to this module and never goes on when it is being accessed

So, reading some of the other reviews, there are a few misconceptions going on here

With VROC, we are talking hardware RAID; Intel software raid is a totally different beast. Called Intel RST, with completely different requirements.

VROC Is configured in the BIOS; Intel RST is configured in a Windows App.

ASUS support on this card is very good up to the point in the system where they are not in control. Intel on the other hand is horrible in terms of VROC support, and it took me a lot of digging to get things figured out.

Intel has VERY specific requirements to get VROC to work; this has nothing to do with ASUS. Even using the same chipsets, the processor itself dictates which hardware key you need; desktop class vs. enterprise class kind of stuff. And Intel maintains a very specific list of M.2 SSD that are compatible with VROC (not just Intel drive, but still very specific).

All that being said, ASUS hardware is great, and when you get it right VROC is amazing.

I'm using an ASUS Prime x299 Edition 30 mobo (has 2 PCIe 3.0 x 16 slots), Intel Pro 7600p 1 TB M.2 drives and the VROCISSDMOD hardware key that is compatible to my i9-10940X.

In the proper config, this let's me run a 2TB solid state, hardware RAID 10, that is connected straight to the CPU

If you buy this, make sure your SSD's do not have heatsinks or are removable. The connections are so close together that the SSD's will not fit side by side if they have their own heatsinks.

Reviewed in Canada on December 8, 2019
Fan is a tad noisy and doesn't appear to do much for cooling, but the unit itself acting as a heatsink is more than enough.

For those seeking to run this on non-server boards, do note that you can only use 2 drives, not 4, as desk top mobo's cannot bifurcate PCI into four X4 lanes. That is a chipset limitation. This is for HEDT chipsets or servers.

I am using it on X570, and I am able to set PCIeX16_2 into X4/X4, so I'm able to run 2 NVMe drives on it. Works well. Price is great!
