  1. raid 2 m.2 NVME drives as one using a pcie adapter and NOT loose speed


    i am looking to get two m.2 NVME drives and put them in a adapter to merge them as one (a HW raid if you will) i see adapters like this here but im wondering isn't that switching from NVME to sata 3? will i go to sata 3 speed if i use this adapter or similar?

    my motherboard is a gigabyte aorus x570 with a 3950x

    the two m.2's i am looking into are 3,200MBps

    :)

    Will Raid 0 work on two Pcie 1x slots for double speed?

    Just looking for fastest editing read/write speeds from 2 old Pcie 1x slots.

    Will W10 raid two Pcie based drives? Will it Work. 2 Nvme ssd's & 2 adapter cards.

  3. PCIE to M.2 adapter.

    Thanks @cadaveca. M.2 in raid, wonder what the benefits are.

    So any suggestions on a better adapter?

  4. raid 2 m.2 NVME drives as one using a pcie adapter and NOT loose speed

    Clone present nvme pcie ssd to replacement nvme pcie ssd?

    I have a 500GB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe SSD (boot drive) that I want to replace with a higher capacity M.2 card.

    Where do I put the new SSD during the NVMe to NVMe cloning process? My mobo only has one M.2 slot for NVMe SSD's so do I want to use an external adapter for one of the M.2 cards? If so, do you have a recommendation?

    If you have solved this issue for your desktop or laptop I would like your advice on if and what extra hardware you needed during the cloning.

    please remember that I am dealing with PCIe NVMe drives ONLY. NO Sata is involved except possibly for a connecting cable from the desktop to an adapter. I am experienced with cloning SATA III drives but cloning NVMe is a little
    new to me.

    Computer: Dell XPS 8920, 32GB ram.

    Present SSD: KXG50ZNV512G NVMe Toshiba 512GB

    New SSD: CT13049074 Crucial P1 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD 1TB (or 2TB if available soon) or similar storage device.

    Windows 10 Pro for Workstations, version 1809.
