Hello and thank you for your interest in our Community.

For this particular M.2, using your USB adapter (something like our M2-USB-C-NVME-SATA or our SM2E1BMU31C) would be your best bet. If you require the card to be mounted internally in your computer, you could also use a PCI Express card such as our PEX4M2E1.

I did not recommend any SATA-based solution due to the fact that your M.2 is not SATA-based, but rather NVMe-based (PCI Express). This means that it is incompatible with a SATA controller and must be read over USB or PCI Express.

I hope this help! If you have any further questions, please let me know.

Hey Emmanuel, I will check if my PC has an open PCI slot on the motherboard.. I think it does, but I need to double check it, and, if there is a slot, I will order the card you recommended, Thanks.
