To test the Seagate FireCuda 520N in one of our test rigs we used a Sabrent (EC-PCIE) NVMe M.2 SSD to PCIe x16/x8/x4 card – a useful, reasonably priced little adapter if you have run out of M.2 PCIe x4 slots on a motherboard as it supports 2230 / 2242 / 2260 and 2280 format drives. For more details check the Sabrent website.

Main system:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X, 32GB DDR4-3200, Sapphire R9 390 Nitro and a Gigabyte B550 AORUS Master motherboard.
