    Problem converting M.2 to U.2 Nvme

    Hi everyone
    I would like to take my intel M.2 ssd ssdpeknw010t8 out of the case for practical reasons, I tried the conversion from M.2 to U.2 with these adapters bought on amazon,

    https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B07...%20psc%20=%201
    https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B06...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    But it didn't work the ssd is not detected by the computer. The motherboard is a gigabyte z390 designate and is equipped with two M.2 Nvme slots. I did the operation twice thinking that one of the two adapters was faulty, so I returned everything to amazon and took two more, but nothing to do. I can't understand where the problem lies since all my configuration is set up for such a connection, is it possible that the SSD is not compatible? I hope someone can give me an answer
    Thanks

            While I think that these 2 interfaces may be electrically compatible(no information available) the connectors are not. This is for converting M2 slot to connect U2 drive. Not connecting M2 slot to M2 drive via cable. I think that this will not work with M2 slot to M2 drive. Also, it is a bad idea to put M2 drive on cable. They are bare PCB-s with no covers whatsoever.
            Useful conversions. I don't "speak" imperial. Please use metric, if you want to address me.

              forgive me but because they sell them if they don't work, the connectors are completely compatible with each other, my example is of a completely open box but there are also closed ones, with no exposed contacts

                That's strange. Yesterday, when I clicked on the links in your post, both times a page with m2 to u2 adapter opened. Today, both links lead to U2 to M2 PCB adapter. If you connect M2 to U2 adapter with cable to U2 to M2 adapter, it should work. But with this stuff you never know.
                Are you sure that your SSD is PCIE/MVME M2?

                  yes, absolutely sure, now I got another one to get rid of this doubt that it is the ssd not compatible, I got this https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B07...00?ie=UTF8&psc = 1
                  tomorrow I will do this further test, that you know can I connect the two ssd to the z390 designare to do the cloning?
