From the project
ORCA PCIe NVMe Link is a custom PCIe expansion board that adds M.2 NVMe storage through a PCIe x4 interface. Designed as part of the ORCA hardware platform for high-speed, modular storage expansion.
ORCA PCIe NVMe Link is a custom PCIe expansion board designed by Finn and branded ORCA Servers. It is intended to add M.2 NVMe storage through a PCIe x4 interface as part of the modular ORCA hardware platform.
The design work is complete enough to prepare for prototyping, but physical manufacturing, assembly, independent engineering review and hardware testing still need funding.
