Installing The Cache
Installing a M.2 PCIe flash disk is easy and only needs to be done once. You can access the
cache location via a removable panel underneath the unit. There are four different length M.2
PCIe flash disks you can use; 2242, 2260, 2280 & 22110. The numbers relate to the width and
length of your NVMe, so a 2242 is 22 millimeters wide by 42 millimeters long.
If needed, the standoff and screw can be
relocated to the suitable slot on the board.
To install the cache:
1 Disconnect your HyperDeck Extreme from the power source. You can leave other cables
connected, but you may find it easier to remove them.
2 Turn the unit upside down and unfasten the 6 screws from the cover plate to remove it.
NOTE HyperDeck Extreme ships with thermally conductive heat pads pre installed to
fill the air gaps between your PCIe flash disk and the unit. These work by transferring
the heat away from the PCIe flash disk to the chassis. Onepad is installed onto the
mother board, the other on the inside of the cover plate. Remember to remove the
blue protective film when installing a SSD.
