Compatible PCIE 4.0x4 to U.2

EIDJ — Mon, 18 Mar 2024 19:00:33 GMT

I have an Intel Optane P5800X ssd which uses U.2 over PCIE 4.0 lanes. I am looking to put it into my personal PC and I need to find a good solution to adapt it. I have seen a few options from reliable sources for PCIE 3.0 conversion but only seemingly unreliable sources for 4.0 and I was wondering if there was a unit Intel had recommended with it on release or if there was something the community could recommend? I would also be able to work with a pcie 5.0 version that is backwards compatible. Ultimately I just don't want to lose any performance on an older model.

I have seen M.2 cables to U.2

The PCIe card products are popular in workstations, buy U.2 hardware is typically server based where more lanes are available
