12) M2A_SOCKET/M2B_SOCKET (M.2 Socket 3 Connectors) The M.2 connectors support M.2 SATA SSDs or M.2 PCIe SSDs and support RAID configuration. Please note that an M.2 PCIe SSD cannot be used to set up a RAID set either with an M.2 SATA SSD or a SATA hard drive. Refer to Chapter 3, "Configuring a RAID Set," for instructions on configuring a RAID array. M2A_SOCKET M2B_SOCKET 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 first. 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. Select the proper hole for the M.2 SSD to be installed and refasten the screw and standoff. - 20 -...
