Need help?
Do you have a question about the TRX50 AERO D and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
What are the steps to replace the M2_WiFi card? I have a Linux machine-System76 with WiFi 6E. Support for the WiFi7 card (NCM865-M2) will soon be available in the Linux kernel, if it isn't already. I already have the M2 from a MSI Herald BE, but obviously I dont want to crack the RF shield/box without knowing what I'm doing.
The context does not provide specific instructions for replacing the M2_WiFi card on the Gigabyte TRX50 AERO D motherboard. However, based on standard M.2 slot handling and the mention of "EZ-Latch Plus" for M.2 slots with quick release design, the general steps are:
1. Power off and unplug the system.
2. Locate the M2_WiFi slot on the motherboard.
3. Use the EZ-Latch Plus mechanism to release the existing card (no screwdriver needed).
4. Gently remove the old M.2 Wi-Fi card.
5. Insert the new M.2 Wi-Fi card into the slot at a slight angle.
6. Press it down and secure it using the EZ-Latch mechanism.
7. Reconnect any antenna wires if needed.
Refer to the motherboard manual for exact location and removal steps.
