Hello.
The M.2 slot is a normal PCIe slot, doesn't?
I have a mITX computer, and I need one more PCIe slot, for a 10GB ethernet card. So, I have purchased a M.2 extender in this web: http://www.era-adapter.com/m2-keym-to-pcie-x4-extender-cable-rightward-r4s-r2r-p-300.html, for using in the M.2 slot of my Asus Z97 I-Plus (at the rear of motherboard). The main PCIe x16 is for the graphic card, a Quadro K4200. That is how it appears:
But, it doesn't work!. With or without extra power, the new 10 gigabit card is no recognize by the system.
And I don't know where is the problem ??? Maybe the M.2 slot of this motherboard is only for SSD drives... In the bios there is not anything about this...
Please, anyone know anything about this? Is this config a good idea? or is a madness?
Regards
