Sonnet McFiver PCIe Card - Black

The dual M.2 NVMe SSD slots support up to 16TB of internal storage expansion, assuming 8TB SSDs are installed.

No, the Sonnet McFiver PCIe Card specifically supports M.2 NVMe PCIe SSDs for maximum performance.

For optimal performance up to 100 meters, Cat 6A cabling is recommended for the 10Gb Ethernet port.

Yes, the McFiver PCIe Card can be used in Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 to PCIe card expansion systems (like Sonnet's Echo series) that have an available full-height x8 card slot.

The product description does not specify charging capabilities; the ports are designed for high-speed data transfer (10Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2).

The Sonnet McFiver PCIe Card comes with a 2-year warranty period.

The McFiver PCIe Card is generally plug-and-play for most modern operating systems (macOS, Windows, Linux). However, it's always a good practice to check Sonnet's support website for any specific driver updates.

Ensure the card is fully seated in the PCIe slot. Verify that the slot is functioning and compatible (PCIe 3.0/4.0 x8). Restart the computer and check the system's BIOS/UEFI for recognition. Ensure you have the latest operating system updates.

Confirm that NVMe SSDs are installed and properly seated. Check that the PCIe slot is operating at the correct speed (e.g., PCIe 3.0 x4 or x8 per drive). Ensure the SSDs are formatted correctly and that no other background processes are consuming significant disk I/O. If using RAID 0, ensure both drives are identical for optimal performance.

Verify the network cable (Cat 6A recommended) is securely connected at both ends. Ensure your network switch or router supports 10GbE. Check the network adapter settings in your OS to confirm it's configured for 10Gbps. Update network drivers if available.

Ensure your connected USB-C devices are compatible with 10Gbps speeds. Try a different USB-C cable known to support high speeds. Check for updated USB drivers or chipset drivers for your motherboard.
