That would be one hilarious setup... PCIe to multiple M.2 and then M.2 to PCIe. Most of them just do 1x NVMe and 1x SATA.. but here is a SuperMicro x8 card that has bifurcation (PCIe switches and supports 4x NVMe (PCIe) SSDs: https://www.cdw.com/product/Supermicro-AOC-SHG3-4M2P-interface-adapter …

there exist adapters to give you more than one port for m.2 and I think there are adapters to make those ports back into full size slots I think that's 4x though someone with more subject knowledge should comment on my idea though.
