So with that in mind, is there a way we can make use of all these fancy new U.2 connectors?

Like making M.2 work with it somehow?

Not M.2 to U.2. I need U.2 to M.2.

After all, right now so does U.2 seems as useful as Sata Express.

Gigabyte seems to have U.2 to M.2, or at least at some point did. SFF-8639 is the old name before it got changed to U.2.

I think it speaks volume, when this is the closest I have found: http://www.microsatacables.com/u-2-sff-8539-and-sff-8643-to-m-2-pci-e-ssd-adapter

There is no info on bandwidth, that I can see and no usable way to mount it in a normal case.

 

So the "only" solution right now, is to get a Intel 750.
