New flat M.2 SSD adapter doesn't stick out from the motherboard, unlocking PCIe slots hidden under massive GPUs — JEYI's new 'ArcherX' AIC lays completely flush and supports PCIe 4.0 speeds

JEYI's new PCIe to M.2 adapter is flat and sits flush with the motherboard when installed in a PCIe slot. It basically takes up no perpendicular space, allowing an SSD to be installed even in tight spaces where the GPU is often blocking the area. The adapter features PCIe 4.0 speeds and is backwards compatible with PCIe 3.0 as well.

Xbox Series X|S storage expansion cards can be used on PC with an inexpensive CFexpress adapter — Speeds top out at 1,560 MB/s in Redditor's testing

You can use Xbox Expansion Cards on PC with a CFexpress adapter since these cards use a standard CFexpress Type-B connector. There are various options available such as PCIe to CFexpress or M.2 to CFexpress, and all of them are inexpensive. You just need to format the Expansion Card before it's useable, but don't expect blazing-fast speeds afterward.

$27 platypus PCIe adapter converts half-height GPUs into full-height while adding two M.2 slots for SSDs — enthusiast demos low-profile RTX 4060 with two SSDs thanks to PCIe bifurcation

A Redditor got his hands on this PCIe adapter that does the job of two different ones at the same time. It converts half-height GPUs into full height while adding M.2 slots for storage expansion. All this is possible thanks to PCIe bifurcation, splitting an x16 slot into x8 for the GPU, and two x4 lanes for the SSDs.
