Wiwynn AVA-M Quad Slots M.2 NVMe SSD PCIe 3.0 x16 Carrier Card
B48.01201.0011 | PCB 16335-1 | Supports 4x M.2 NVMe SSDs (2280/22110)
The Wiwynn AVA-M Quad M.2 NVMe Carrier Card is a high-performance enterprise-grade PCIe storage expansion adapter designed for hyperscale cloud, data center, workstation, and server environments. This Full-Height Half-Length (FHHL) carrier card supports up to four M.2 NVMe SSDs simultaneously and connects directly through a PCIe 3.0 x16 interface, providing dedicated PCIe 3.0 x4 bandwidth to each installed drive for maximum storage performance.
Originally developed by Wiwynn, a leading Open Compute Project (OCP) manufacturing partner, the AVA-M carrier card is commonly deployed in hyperscale cloud infrastructures, enterprise servers, and high-performance workstation environments where high-density NVMe storage and efficient scalability are required.

Important Compatibility Requirements
PCIe Bifurcation Required
This carrier card is a passive adapter and requires motherboard support for PCIe lane bifurcation.
Required BIOS Setting:
- PCIe Bifurcation: x4/x4/x4/x4
Expected Behavior
If x4/x4/x4/x4 Bifurcation is Enabled
- All four NVMe SSDs are detected
- Full performance available on all drives
If x8/x8 Bifurcation is Used
- Typically only two SSDs are detected
If Bifurcation Support Is Unavailable
- Only one SSD may be detected
- Remaining drives will not be visible to the operating system
