Installation
Notes:
• PCI Express cards are static sensitive devices that require proper handling. An
Anti-Static ESD Wrist Strap (such as Tripp Lite's P999-000) or similar device
should always be used when handling.
• Handle the card with care when installing, holding it by the edges and not the
PCIe interface connectors.
• When disconnecting the drive, go through the proper disconnection steps of
your operating system to safely remove it. Removing the drive prior to proper
disconnection can result in losing or corrupting data stored on the drive.
• If your drive has not been formatted yet, you will first need to format it using your
computer's disk management utility in order to copy and access files.
1. Place your SSD next to the M.2 SSD connector on the PCIe adapter,
matching up the drive installation holes. Insert the standoff into the
hole that matches the size of your drive. Secure the standoff to the
board using one of the included screws and nut.
2. Slide the M.2 connector on the SSD drive into the M.2 receptacle on
the PCIe adapter.
Note: The connector on the M.2 SSD is keyed so the drive will only fit one way.
3. Hold down the drive toward the mounting standoff, and secure it
in place using the second included screw. Your M.2 drive is now
installed.
4. Turn off the computer you are installing the PCIe card in. Unplug
its power cord and disconnect all peripheral devices (e.g. monitor,
keyboard, mouse, printer, etc.) from it.
5. Referring to your computer's technical documentation, remove the
cover from your computer.
6. Locate an available PCI Express slot (x4, x8 and x16 slots supported).
Remove the metal bracket from the back of the computer to allow for
insertion of the card.
