eshinreal Quad PCIe 3.0 x16 to M.2 NVMe Adapter PLX8747 Low-Profile

SKU CH-4WM1-E1FD3

Adds four M.2 NVMe slots through one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot using a PLX8747 switch, no bifurcation needed, low-profile bracket included

  • TypeController Card
  • Four M.2 NVMe slots via one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot
  • PLX8747 switch enables expansion without motherboard bifurcation
  • Low-profile bracket fits small form factor cases
  • Up to 3,500MB/s per SSD at PCIe 3.0 speeds
  • Driver-free NVMe support on Windows 10, 11 and Linux

Quad M.2 NVMe expansion card

The eshinreal adapter occupies one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot and adds four M.2 NVMe ports. A Broadcom PLX8747 switch manages the lanes so each drive runs at x4 without needing motherboard bifurcation. It targets workstations and servers that need dense, high-speed storage in a single expansion slot.

Aluminium heatsink with PWM fan header

A large finned aluminium heatsink covers all four slots and thermal pads are supplied for every drive. An on-board 4-pin PWM header allows an optional fan to be fitted for sustained heavy workloads. A 6-pin PCIe auxiliary power connector feeds the switch and SSDs, with over-current and over-temperature protection built in.

Low-profile bracket and driver-free OS support

The card ships with a low-profile bracket for small-form-factor cases; a full-height bracket is available separately. Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux and VMware recognise NVMe 1.3 and 1.4 drives without extra drivers. Compatible M.2 lengths are 2280 and 22110.

Questions about this item

How do I install the eshinreal Quad PCIe 3.0 x16 to M.2 NVMe Adapter and what step is often missed?

Insert the card into a PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, secure the low-profile bracket, connect the 6-pin PCIe auxiliary power connector, then install up to four 2280 or 22110 NVMe SSDs into the M.2 slots and apply the included thermal pads.

What maintenance or replacement will the eshinreal Quad PCIe 3.0 x16 to M.2 NVMe Adapter need later?

The aluminum heatsink and thermal pads are passive; if an optional 4-pin PWM fan is fitted, clean its blades periodically and replace the fan if it fails or becomes noisy.

What limit appears first on the eshinreal Quad PCIe 3.0 x16 to M.2 NVMe Adapter under sustained use?

Each NVMe SSD is capped at roughly 3,500MB/s by the PCIe 3.0 x4 link, while the PLX8747 switch shares a total of 16GB/s aggregate bandwidth across all four drives.
