Figure 48. M.2 drive installation
Step 1. Insert the M.2 drive at an angle of approximately 30 degrees into the connector.
Note: If your M.2 backplane supports two M.2 drives, insert the M.2 drives into the connectors at
both sides.
Step 2. Rotate the M.2 drive down until the notch
1 catches on the lip of the retainer 2 .
Step 3. Slide the retainer forward (toward the connector) to secure the M.2 drive into place.
Attention: When sliding the retainer forward, ensure that the two nubs

small holes
