Best solution for SSD expansion card for M.2 NVMe

You’d need an active PCIe Switch NVMe HBA to be completely independent from motherboard compatibility (like bifurcation BIOS support).

Can recommend the Delock 90504 if PCIe Gen3 or 3.700 MB/s per SSD is enough or a Broadcom P411W-32P for PCIe Gen4 speeds (7.400 MB/s per SSD).

Then connect the M.2 or U.2 NVMe SSDs with adapters, PCIe Gen3 is pretty easy, Gen4 not so much.

The Broadcom doesn’t like system sleep/S3, the Delock one works completely fine with updated firmware.
