Today I experienced the exactly same issue. After losing 2 SN100 and 1 SN150, I narrowed down the issue was due to an NMVe HBA card. Fortunately I found a way to recover those drives by activating the default firmware (read-only) in slot 1. After reboot, I can initialize and format those...

Thanks, Patrick! I will order 40 from vendor and ship to you. I will PM you and discuss the details.

@Patrick , @abq , @nev_neo , @frogtech , how many do you want? My next trip to US is Nov. If you can't wait, probably I could ask my colleague bring some to US. But I don't trouble him too much. @Patrick , can I mail all the adapters to you? You help distribute those adapters?

It's not ready for order yet. I expect it will be available in China local market around end of this month or early of next month. I will travel to US at the end of May. I could bring some with me if it's ready at that time. I will bring limited number of the 1U M.2 riser with me. If anybody...

Yes, I did. But according to manufacturer this design is more cost effective. I suggested them add a similar fan as Amfeltec board and add more space between two layers.

The customized board is HHHL size.

I just got the latest version from manufacturer. Now this version can perfectly support my C6220 II. Check it out! (The bottom one in the first picture.)

I just got the v2.
