ASUS HYPER M.2 X16 GEN5 CARD

Overview

The ASUS HYPER M.2 X16 GEN5 CARD is a PCIe expansion card designed to add four M.2 NVMe slots to your system, supporting drive sizes 2242, 2260, 2280, and 22110. It connects via a PCIe 5.0 x16 interface, delivering a combined bandwidth of up to 512 Gb/s when used with compatible Intel or AMD platforms. This card is built to expand storage capacity with ultra-fast SSDs and to enable high-speed RAID arrays for enhanced performance and data protection.

Power delivery is managed through a two-phase system capable of supplying up to 14 watts via a 6-pin PCIe power connector, ensuring stable operation for demanding SSDs. Cooling is handled by a large heatsink paired with an active blower-style fan, which can be controlled both through hardware and ASUS’s Fan Xpert 4 software to balance temperature and noise levels effectively.

This expansion card suits professionals and enthusiasts who need fast, reliable storage in workstations, gaming setups, or servers. It supports workloads involving large media files, virtual machines, or extensive databases by maintaining high throughput and thermal stability.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
