ToughArmor MB842MP-B

Removable 2 Bay M.2 NVMe SSD to PCIe 4.0 x8 Mobile Rack Enclosure for PCI Express Slot (PCIe Bifurcation required)


Note: To utilize an M.2, U.2, or U.3 NVMe SSD in a PCIe 16x or 8x slot, the motherboard or add-on card must support PCIe Bifurcation. This mode divides PCIe lanes into specific configurations like x4, x4, x4, x4 for a 16x slot or x4, x4 for an 8x slot, ensuring the SSD can be read by the system. For compatible hardware, please refer to the FAQ section. If your hardware is not listed there, please contact us for assistance.



Innovative Removable M.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure

A typical M.2 drive is installed on a motherboard or a riser card and is secured by a small screw. Additionally, the physical installation process is very troublesome and time-consuming. The ToughArmor MB842MP-Bs removable drive tray design utilizes the PCI express slot to make the M.2 SSD installation and removal process completely hassle-free.



Maximum Compatibility

The ToughArmor MB842MP-B is designed for the PCIe slot and is compatible with PCIe 3.0/4.0 x8 and x16 slots.

Note: PCIe Bifurcation mode (x4, x4, x4, x4 for PCIe 16x slot or x4, x4 for PCIe 8x slot) is required to access both M.2 NVMe SSD.



Optimal Cooling Efficiency

The specialized slim M.2 drive tray is made of thick aluminum and acts as a heatsink to dissipate heat generated by the M.2 NVMe SSD.

The included thermal pad fills the gap between the contact surface and transfers heat away from M.2 NVMe SSD to the larger aluminum surface, allowing airflow to move the heat away quickly.Model Number:
