Follow the steps below to correctly install an M.2 SSD in the M2A_32G connector.
Step 1:
Use a screw driver to unfasten the screw and nut from the motherboard. Locate the proper mounting hole
for๎the๎M.2๎SSD๎to๎be๎installed๎and๎then๎screw๎the๎nut๎๎ฟrst.
Step 2:
Slide the M.2 SSD into the connector at an oblique angle.
Step 3:
Press the M.2 SSD down and then secure it with the screw.
Select the proper hole for the M.2 SSD to be installed and refasten the screw and nut.
๎ When installing different types of M.2 SSDs (including SATA SSDs, PCIe x4 SSDs, and PCIe x2 SSDs), be
sure๎to๎refer๎to๎the๎supported๎con๎ฟgurations๎in๎the๎tables๎below๎according๎to๎the๎operating๎mode๎of๎your๎
