Before you install an M.2 drive in the M.2 backplane:
1. Touch the static-protective package that contains the new M.2 drive to any unpainted surface on the
outside of the server. Then, take the new M.2 drive out of the package and place them on a static-
protective surface.
2. Adjust the retainer on the M.2 backplane to accommodate the particular size of the M.2 drive you wish
to install. See "Adjust the retainer on the M.2 backplane" on page 77.
Complete the following steps to install an M.2 drive in the M.2 backplane.
Step 1. Locate the connector on each side of the M.2 backplane.
Notes:
• Some M.2 backplanes support two identical M.2 drives. When two drives are installed, align and
support both drives when sliding the retainer forward to secure the drives.
• Install the M.2 drive in slot 0 first.

Step 2. Insert the M.2 drive at an angle (approximately 30 degrees) into the connector and rotate it until the
notch catches on the lip of the retainer; then, slide the retainer forward (toward the connector) to
secure the M.2 drive in the M.2 backplane.
