The kryoM.2 evo is a PCIe 5.0 x4 adapter for single sided M.2/M-Key NGFF PCIe SSDs and is compatible with the form factor 2280.
Special features of the kryoM.2 evo:
- Water block made from nickel plated copper for the top side of the SSD
- Combatible with PCIe 5.0 / 4.0 / 3.0
- Integrated passive heat sink for the rear side of the SSD
- Configurable LED lighting and additional activity indicator
- Impedance controlled PCIe Lanes for high signal quality, high data rates and prevention of data errors
- PCIe plug with gold coating
- Gold coated PCB
- Slot bracket for optimized air flow
During installation, the SSD is sandwiched between the water block and rear heat sink using thermal pads for optimum heat dissipation. The water block is made from copper and nickel plated, the rear heat sink is made from aluminum and anodized in black color. LEDs in a warm orange color are located along the edges of the adapter. The illumination can either be switched on or off or alternatively light up upon activity of the installed SSD. An additional SSD logo with background lighting on the rear side (facing upwards in ATX cases) shows SSD activity.
All components have been selected for perfect quality: The PCIe contacts and the PCB are completely coated with gold. For the M.2 connector, quality brand connectors made by Amphenol or Kyocera are used and the circuit paths are impedance controlled.
The adapter works at the full available speed of PCIe 5.0 and is downwards compatible with PCIe 4.0 and 3.0.
