  • Publication number: 20240107671
    Abstract: A data storage card insertable into a peripheral slot of host system is provided that houses storage devices on both sides of the data storage card. A heat sink member establishes a skewed offset stackup among a primary circuit board and a secondary circuit board, and a circuit interconnect element couples across the skewed offset stackup between the circuit boards. The primary circuit board comprises an edge connector insertable into a peripheral slot connector and is configured to carry host signaling for the computer peripheral device. The secondary circuit board comprises a first set of data storage device connectors on a first side and a second set of data storage connectors on a second side. The skewed offset stackup allows for a thickness of storage devices inserted on both the first side and the second side to fit within a slot width of the peripheral slot.
