Enhance your computer's storage performance to handle demanding tasks such as video editing with the HighPoint SSD7104 PCIe 3.0 x16 4-Channel M.2 NVMe RAID Controller, which installs into an available PCIe 3.0 x16 slot. Supporting to four 2TB M.2 NVMe solid-state drives in RAID 0, 1, 10, or Single configuration with four dedicated lanes per slot, the SSD7104 can transfer data at up to 14,000 MB/s. Cross Sync RAID technology allows you to add a second controller, doubling both the speed and capacity. The full-size expansion card also includes a full-length anodized aluminum heatsink that efficiently dissipates heat from the installed SSDs, providing optimized performance and silent operation. The HighPoint SSD7104 RAID controller works with Windows 10, macOS, Windows Server, and Linux operating systems.

PCIe 3.0 x16 Bus Interface    4 x M.2 NVMe Ports    Supports 2242, 2260, 2280 & 22110 SSDs    Dedicated PCIe 3.0 x4 Channels per Port    Supports RAID 0, 1, 10, JBOD, and Single    Up to 14,000 MB/s Throughput    Full Height Form Factor    Aluminum Heatsink    Supports Cross Sync RAID Technology    Windows 10, Mac, and Linux Compatible

Two SSD7104 RAID controllers can work simultaneously to deliver up to 16TB of storage, transferring up to 28,000 MB/s.

The full-length anodized aluminum heatsink helps to prevent speed throttling and reduces distractions by operating silently to maintain optimal temperatures.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I have one of these and the fan is really loud. Is there any way to make it quieter?

A: The fan speed of the HighPoint RocketStor 6661A Thunderbolt 3 to PCIe 3.0 x16 Expansion Chassis is not user adjustable.

Q: 2. Does it support any form of RAID ?

A: Yes, the HighPoint Rocket R1204 PCIe 3.0 x8 4-Channel M.2 NVMe Host Controller has support for OS-based RAID configurations.

Q: 3. What's the maximum throughput?

A: Rocket series NVMe HBAs such as this 1508 8-Bay M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe 4.0 x16 Adapter Card are capable of fully saturating x16 lanes of 4.0 host bandwidth.

Q: 4. Will this work with Mellanox Connect-X6 / Connect-X5 cars on Windows?

A: The RocketStor 6661A Thunderbolt 3 to PCIe 3.0 Expansion Chassis is only compatible with macOS/OS X systems.

Q: 5. What is the difference between this NVME card and the HighPoint PCIe Gen5 x16 to 8-M.2x4 NVMe RAID AIC? Pros and cons?

A: The main difference between the HighPoint PCIe Gen5 x16 to 8-M.2x4 NVMe Switch AIC and the HighPoint PCIe Gen5 x16 to 8-M.2x4 NVMe RAID AIC is that the Switch model does not support RAID configurations. If you want to combine the M.2 SSDs into a RAID volume, then you would need the RAID model; the Switch model will have all drives as separate independent drives.

Q: 6. It will work on mac pro 5.1 pcie16x(2.0)? I believe individual drives (nvme 4.0) will work full, but raid will be negligible because of pcie 2.0. Am i right?

A: Nvme drives will typically be bottlenecked by PCIe 2.0 with or without RAID, and as such only SATA M.2 drives (via a PCIe card similar to this one) would be recommended for use with PCIe 2.0.

Q: 7. Does this card work inside Dell 7875 precision workstation? It does have one Gen 5 x16 PCIe lane.

A: Yes, the HighPoint Rocket 7608A PCIe 5.0 x16 to 8-M.2x4 NVMe RAID AIC will be compatible with Windows workstations/servers that have an available PCIe 5.0 x16 lane and at least 82.64 W of power available for the card.

Q: 8. Does this support x16 cards? Asking as in the key features it states "Supports PCIe x16, x8, and x4 Cards" but then it also states "1 x PCIe 3.0 x4" Slot so I am unsure and the pictures also only show a x4 slot.

A: There are some card with a PCIe x4 slot that operate at x16 speeds. This model has such a compatibility, it has an x4 slot but can support up to x16 speeds.

Q: 9. What's the difference to HighPoint SSD7540?

A: In addition to RAID 0, the HighPoint SSD7540 can support RAID 1 and RAID 10.

Q: 10. Does this have hardware RAID?

A: The Sonnet M.2 4x4 Silent PCIe 3.0 x16 Card for NVMe SSDs BH #SOFSSSD44E3S supports RAID 0, 1, and 5.
