HP Z Turbo Drive G2 M.2 PCIe 3.0 adapter
(unlocked / works on any PCIe PC, no SSD)

NOTICE: Please note these have been modified to work in any PCIe 3.0 compatible computer system. The original HP Z Turbo Drive is locked to HP Z workstations, but these are no longer locked.

Listed for sale are HP Z Turbo Drive G2 M.2 PCIe 3.0 adapters. These adapters allow you to install a very fast M.2 NVMe SSD in the PCIe slot. Great for OS boot drives! In my opinion, these are the best M.2 NVMe PCIe adapters out there, with a beefy heatsink design that is not attached by rubber bands, but with screws and thermal pad.

Features include:

  1. PCIe 3.0 x4 connector
  2. M.2 (M-key, NVMe SSD, not SATA) slot compatible with 2280, 2260, 2242 form factors
  3. Full profile PCIe bracket with ventilation holes included
  4. SSD mounting screw included (very hard to find if not)
  5. Heatsink with thermal pad
  6. Modified to work on any PCIe 3.0 compatible computer system

These cards are fully tested in my Supermicro server with Samsung PM981a M.2 NVMe SSDs (one of my recommended M.2 NVMe SSDs!).

Feel free to ask any questions.

Why buy from the Art of Server?
  • I can provide technical support if you have problems
  • I'm aware of counterfeit products on the market, and I make every effort to ensure that what I sell are not counterfeit.
  • I ship fast, usually same or next business day!
  • I have a YouTube channel with many helpful videos. Look for "Art of Server" on YouTube. (sorry, I can't link per eBay policy)
  • I fully test the HBAs I sell. See my testing process on YouTube.
  • I clean the server components I sell. You will not receive something covered in dust, or have unwanted stickers/labels, etc. 
  • I ship electronic parts in proper anti-static bags (not the pink stuff) with bubble wrap or foam protection where needed.
  • I am a server enthusiast and IT professional that has worked with many brands of servers and have also built custom servers, not just someone selling computer parts. I love what I do! :-)
  • I've used ZFS for many years. I'm familiar with ZFS on Linux, FreeNAS, and many of the technologies commonly used by other enthusiasts.
  • I love cats. How can you deny my cute, cuddly charm?
Who is the Art of Server?
I'm a cat lover and a server enthusiast. I've operated my own rack of servers at home for almost 20 years. I've helped many friends and strangers with their servers. So, one day, I thought why not offer pre-flashed IT mode / HBA SAS controllers on eBay to help others with their server build? Since then, I've also added other "interesting" items to my eBay store that I think other server/computer enthusiasts would like. Oh, and I love cats. :-)
