FollowthestepsbelowtocorrectlyinstallanM.2SSDintheM.2connector.
Step 1:
Get a screw and a standoff from the included M.2 screw and standoff packs. Locate the M.2 connector
whereyouwillinstalltheM.2SSD,useascrewdrivertounfastenthescrewontheheatsinkandthen
remove the heatsink.
Step 2:
LocatethepropermountingholefortheM.2SSDtobeinstalledandthentightenthestandoffrst.Insert
theM.2SSDintotheM.2connectoratanangle.
Step 3:
PresstheM.2SSDdownandthensecureitwiththescrew.Replacetheheatsinkandsecureittothe
original hole.
(Note) TheM2B_SOCKETconnectorsupportsonlyPCIeSSDs.
