Scheda interfaccia Gembird EE18-M2S3PCB-01

The Gembird EE18-M2S3PCB-01 is an internal interface card that allows installation of a 1.8" mSATA (M.2 NGFF) SSD into a system via an M.2 host slot. It supports SATA device interfaces (SATA 3/2/1) and requires no additional software drivers, offering a compact (106 mm × 45 mm) and lightweight (17.5 g) solution for expanding internal storage.

Advantages

This adapter card provides direct compatibility between M.2 host slots and 1.8" mSATA SSDs (NGFF) without the need for drivers. It supports the full range of SATA versions (SATA I/II/III), has a small PCB footprint for constrained installations and is designed for internal mounting, delivering a simple, plug-and-play method to add or reuse mSATA storage.

Suitable for

• Installing a 1.8" mSATA (M.2 NGFF) SSD into a motherboard M.2 slot
• Upgrading or reusing mSATA drives in laptops, mini-PCs or embedded systems
• Systems requiring SATA 3/2/1 compatibility in an M.2 form factor

How to use

Power down the computer and open the chassis. Insert the 1.8" mSATA SSD into the adapter's mSATA connector and secure it according to the drive and board mounting points. Install the adapter into the system M.2 slot, make sure it is seated correctly and fasten any required screw. Close the case, power on the system and verify the drive is detected in firmware/operating system. No driver installation is required for SATA recognition.

Recommendations

Use static-safe handling when mounting the adapter and SSD. Ensure the M.2 slot supports the required key and SATA signal lanes; check the motherboard manual for compatibility before installation.
