M.2 NVMe drives can bring significant performance increases to a system with its 32Gb/s transfer speed, especially for older workstations, servers, and virtual machine hosts. However, not all systems have a dedicated M.2 slot on their motherboard and an adapter for the PCIe slot is needed to use these M.2 drives. Additionally, with M.2 NVMe drives, there are risks of heat damage to the drive, causing slower speeds and decreased performance. An adapter with no support for heatsinks or fans runs the risk of having the M.2 drive on it getting heat damaged and having decreased performance from its specifications.

With the CP072, an easy way to mount your M.2 drive and provide cooling support is here. The CP072 allows you to mount a single M.2 drive on the PCIe slot, placing the drive away from the motherboard. While being away from the motherboard, the M.2 drive is in contact with a heatsink that is linked to a fan. The heatsink with fan allows excessive heat from the M.2 drive to vent out and dissipate away from it. Insure the longevity and performance of your M.2 NVMe drive with the CP072 by giving the proper cooling your drive deserves.
