U 2 Ssd Connector

Build in sff 8639 connector pin out defined by pcie.

U 2 ssd connector.

U 2 formerly known as sff 8639 is a computer interface standard for connecting ssds to a computer it covers the physical connector electrical characteristics and communication protocols. It uses up to four pci express lanes and two sata lanes. 1 sff 8643 36 pin x4 pcie gen 3 host connectors. U 2 sff 8639 sata 7 15pin to m 2 ssd adapter up to 110 size.

When intel unleashed it s super fast nvme ssd 750 it cam is two form factors one was a pcie ssd and the other was a 2 5 ssd which sported the all new but rather hard to say sff 8639 connector. On the motherboard u 2 is a double decker connector that receives a similarly double decker cable from the ssd.

Build in m 2 m key female connector. The u 2 sff 8639 standard is pretty unique. M 2 nvme to u 2 sff 8639 convert. U 2 connector is a combination extension of the existing sata and sas connectors which offer up to 4x pcie 3 0 lanes to a connected device.

U 2 connector supports nvme standard protocol and pci e 3 0x4 bus which makes the u 2 ssd have a theoretical bandwidth up to 32gbps and have advantages of high speed low latency and low power consumption. This u 2 sff 8639 and sata 7 15 pin to m 2 ssd adapter is up to 110 mm in size. M 2 sata to sata 22pin convert. The enterprise ssd form factor was released on december 20 2011 by sffwg as a mechanism for providing pci express connections to ssds for the enterprise market.

On the other end a much wider cable plugs into the ssd for the u 2 multi lane. U 2 utilizes the pcie 3 0 x4 denotes four lanes interface just like m 2 the main difference is that the capacity for these ultra high performance ssds is not bound by a small. The connector for disks is totally different than the connector for motherboards and only a handful of disks for this interface exist. Its purpose is the same as sata express to provide sufficient bandwidth for fast ssds.
