QNAP U.2 NVMe to dual M.2 NVMe SSD adapter – QDA-U2MP
QDA-U2MP
Overview
Features
The QDA-U2MP can accommodate two M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSDs within a 2.5-inch U.2 (SFF-8639) PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD drive bay. No software driver is required for the QDA-U2MP, and it can be installed in a PC/workstation (Windows®, Linux®) or QNAP NAS to replace an expensive U.2 SSD with more-affordable M.2 SSDs.
1. Install two M.2 2280 (M key) PCIe NVMe SSDs in a U.2 PCIe NVMe SSD drive bay (M.2 SSDs sold separately).
2. Up to PCIe 3.0 x4 file transfer speeds.

High-quality construction for better heat dissipation
The M.2 SSD thermal pads and aluminum-alloy metal frame assist in dissipating heat from the M.2 SSD to ensure high performance.
Install in a PC/workstation for higher performance with lower costs
Use the QDA-U2MP to install two M.2 SSDs in the 2.5-inch U.2 SSD tray of a high-end PC/workstation (Windows® or Linux®), and easily deal with tasks that require intensive data transmission (such as on-the-fly video editing, server-grade applications, or online gaming). Users can use utilities from their SSD manufacturer or third-party providers (for example: CrystalDiskInfo) to view the health status of installed SSDs.
Note: Consult your PC system provider regarding compatibility with U.2 NVMe SSD.
Install in QNAP NAS for efficient yet cost-effective storage
Install one or more QDA-U2MP in a NAS to maximize PCIe bandwidth utilization in a cost-effective way by using M.2 SSDs instead of expensive U.2 SSD for optimizing data-intensive applications. It can also boost IOPS performance when configuring SSD caching. Users can monitor drive health and manage SSD usage from the QTS Storage & Snapshots Manager.
Note: Supports QNAP NAS models that include the QDA-U2MP as optional accessory and feature the QTS 4.4.2 (or later).
