Warning!
Drives and storage enclosures should be handled carefully, especially when
they’re transported. If you’re not careful with your drives, you may lose data as a result.
Always handle storage devices with caution. Make sure that you’re properly grounded
by wearing an anti-static strap when you install any computer component. If an anti-
static strap isn’t available, touch a large grounded metal surface for several seconds to
discharge any built-up static electricity.
1. Remove the back from the adapter.
2. Depending on the length of your drive, you may need to move the preinstalled
M.2 drive mount hardware. Place your drive next to the adapter and note the drive
installation holes that match the height of your drive. If the drive mount hardware is
already installed in the correct position, proceed to step 7.
3. Remove the circuit board (held in by snaps) and use a small set of pliers to remove
the nuts that are holding the drive mount hardware in place on the reverse side.
4. Use the provided screwdriver to remove the two screws that make up the drive
mount hardware.
5. Place the screws that you removed in step 4 in the drive installation holes that
match the length of your drive and use the screwdriver to tighten the screws.
6. Replace the nuts that you removed in step 3 and tighten them.
7. Gently slide the M.2 connector on your drive into the corresponding connector on
the 25S22M2NGFFR, and press the drive down toward the adapter until the drive is
in place.
Note:
The connector on your drive is keyed so that it only fits one way.
8. If necessary, insert a second drive.
9. Install the adapter in your 2.5 in. SATA drive application. For more information on
how to install the adapter, consult the documentation that came with your SATA
host device.
To remove a drive, remove the screws that are holding the drive in place and the drive
will lift up and you can grasp it and remove it.
