MIXING CARBON FIBER AND ALUMINUM COMPONENTS
The structural mounting points for the carbon fiber media modules are optimized for the carbon fiber DSMC
BRAIN, whereas the structural mounting points for the standard aluminum side SSD modules are optimized for
use with the standard aluminum DSMC BRAIN.
Using a carbon fiber media module with an aluminum DSMC BRAIN or using an aluminum side SSD module with
a carbon fiber DSMC BRAIN may lead to an unstable connection between the BRAIN and the module, which
could affect data integrity.
WARNING:
Damage to the DSMC BRAIN, side SSD module, or other components of the DSMC system caused
by mixing carbon fiber components with non-carbon-fiber components is not covered under warranty, and may
void the warranty for both the BRAIN and the side SSD module.

RED MINI-MAG Side SSD Module
DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module
DSMC 1.8" SSD Side Module (DRAGON)
