About this task
NOTE:
Depending on the configuration ordered, your computer may support an M.2 2230 solid-state drive or an M.2 2280
solid-state drive in M.2 slot one.
NOTE: If there is only one solid-state drive in the configuration you ordered, you can install another solid-state drive in the
other M.2 slot. However, you may need a solid-state drive mounting bracket (sold separately) to install the additional solid-
state drive.
NOTE: This procedure is applicable if you are installing an M.2 2280 solid-state drive in M.2 slot one.
NOTE: Before installing your M.2 2230 or M.2 2280 solid-state drive, ensure that the mounting bracket is in the correct
location. For more information, see Installing the solid-state drive mounting bracket.
The figure indicates the location of the M.2 2280 solid-state drive/Intel Optane memory module that is installed in M.2 slot one
