Become a master of data storage and transfer with the Sonnet M.2 8x4 Silent Gen4 PCIe Card for NVMe SSDs. This high-performance card allows you to add up to 64TB of SSD storage in a single card slot, revolutionizing your professional workflow.

The Sonnet M.2 8x4 Silent Gen4 PCIe Card is designed to bridge the gap between speed and capacity. It enables you to mount up to eight NVMe SSDs into a single x16 PCIe card slot, combining their capabilities for ultra-performance. This means you no longer have to choose between the high speed of M.2 NVMe PCIe SSDs and the large capacity of hard drives.

This PCIe card is equipped with a Gen 4 PCIe slot for superior storage performance. When installed with your SSDs into your computer's x16 PCIe 4.0 or PCIe 3.0 slot, it can achieve superior storage performance with four SSDs configured as RAID 0.

The Sonnet M.2 8x4 Silent Gen4 PCIe Card is a full-height, full-length PCIe 4.0 card with a 48-lane PCIe 4.0 switch and x16 interface. This design supports maximum performance, with x16 slot bandwidth available to all x4-connected SSDs, facilitating maximum speed with any combination of M.2 SSDs used.

This Sonnet card is self-contained and doesn't require a specific motherboard to operate or specific SSDs to support RAID features, making it a versatile addition to your tech arsenal. It's universally compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux computers with an x16 PCIe slot and works with a wide variety of M.2 NVMe Gen4 and Gen3 SSDs.

Key features of this PCIe card include the ability to add up to 64TB of ultra-fast storage, superior performance with sustained four SSD RAID 0 speeds up to 30,000 MB/s, and RAID support for macOS, Windows, and Linux. It also supports booting from single (non-RAID) attached SSDs and S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) data reporting.

The Sonnet M.2 8x4 Silent Gen4 PCIe Card also features a custom silent cooling solution that enables installed SSDs to maintain consistent high performance during very large file transfer operations without the use of fans. It's also Thunderbolt compatible, allowing you to connect up to eight SSDs through one cable with performance up to 2800 MB/s.

Whether you're an Adobe After Effects user or simply need a high-performance storage solution, the Sonnet M.2 8x4 Silent Gen4 PCIe Card is a game-changer. Its silent cooling design thwarts thermal throttling, enabling SSDs to maintain sustained peak performance without a peep.
