Waste of time
Seriously, have put this unit in many different machines and more often than not will not be recognised/load drivers. Win 8 / Win 10 / Win 11 / Server 2016 / Server 2019 / Server 2022 as well as various Linux distros. Should just have a chipset driver available and everyone will be happy.

Works exactly as advertised.
I bought this card about six months ago to the SATA SSD in a Dell Precision 5810 workstation using a 1 terabyte Samsung 970 Evo Plus as the boot drive. It was easy to setup and the performance has been great. I work in technology for a living and have been buying parts like this from StarTech for 10 plus years and I've never been disappointed with their products or their support. If I were, I have no doubt they would take care of it. Before you install any kind of PCI Express card to use an NVMe SSD as a boot drive, do the research to make sure your systems supports it. Otherwise, that's on you for not "reading the directions".
