Connect an M.2 NVMe SSD

Warning! Drives should be handled carefully, especially when you transport them. If you're not careful with your drives, you may experience lost or corrupted data. Make sure that you're properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when you install any computer component. If an anti-static strap isn't available, touch a large, grounded metal surface for several seconds to discharge any built-up static electricity.

1. Depending on the length of the drive, you may need to move the preinstalled drive-mounting hardware. Place the drive next to the adapter and note the drive-mounting hole that matches the length of your drive. If the drive-mounting hardware is already installed in the correct position, proceed to step 4.
2. Use a small pair of pliers to remove the nut from the reverse side of the converter.
3. Place the nut and standoff that you removed in the previous step in the drive-mounting hole that matches the length of the drive, and use a screwdriver to tighten them.
4. Gently slide the connector on the drive into the M.2 NVMe connector on the adapter.
5. Insert the drive-mounting screw through the drive and into the standoff, and use a screwdriver to tighten the drive-mounting screw.

To remove a drive, use a screwdriver to remove the drive-mounting screw that is holding the drive in place and slide the drive out of the adapter.

Install the adapter

Warning! Computer components can be severely degraded by static electricity. If an anti-static strap isn't available, discharge any built-up static electricity by touching a large, grounded metal surface for several seconds.
