First Impression
M2P4S adapter enables dual PCIe base M.2(NGFF) SSD such as Samsung XP941 or Plextor M6e as a HDD Cards for desktop PC.
M2P4S design two slot for M.2(NGFF) SSD:
One M.2 slot use for PCIe x4 slot for desktop PC directly.
Another slot can be connected into another PCIe Slot with P23S gold finger though FFC (Flat Flexible Cable) cable for flexible use.
The module can support system boot.

Boot from M.2 SSD storage.
We successfully installed the system through M2P4A Samsung SSD, and the success of the boot.
Operating platform follows:
CPU: Intel® Pentium® Processor G3258
MB: ASROCK Z97 Killer
OS: Windows 8.1 64bit
Adapter : M2P4A
SSD Hard Drive: Samsung XP941-128G M.2(NGFF) PCIe x4 SSD
Most Z97 chipset can support boot with PCIe’s storage.
You can simply install the OS but chose the M.2 storage.
The chose setup BIOS to boot from it.
Note:
Because z97’s BIOS is UEFI BIOS, make sure you boot from “UEFI: your storage name”.
- If you use generic’s USB dongle to install your OS, then you need to choose “UEFI: generic storage”.
- If you use CD ROM to install your OS, please choose “UEFI: WDC WD10EARS-OOMVMBO”
