Installing M.2 Solid State Drives

The motherboard accommodates two M.2 solid state drive (SSD). The M.2 socket supports
NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4 in 2280 or 22110 form factors. The 22110 form factor is recommended
because the appropriate standoff comes pre-installed on the motherboard.

precautions to avoid damage caused by ESD.
1. Power down the system as described in Section 3.1 and then remove the top chassis
cover as described in Section 3.2.
2. Locate M.2 slots on Motherboard at M.2-C1/ M.2-C2.

use gentle force to pull it out of the hole.
4. Move and place the standoff plug in the proper hole.
5. Insert M.2 device at a slight angle in the M.2 slot, and ensure the notch on the other
end of the device aligns the standoff top.
