Review on ๐Ÿ’พ M.2 NVMe SSD Screws for Asus, Gigabyte, and MSI Motherboards - Laptop M.2 Screws by Badpuppy Warton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent Generous Kit

For some reason M.2 device manufacturers "forget" to include the bolt and screw needed to attach the device to the computer tool it attaches to shall be. Revain sells several of these kits in various configurations. In my experience, this is the best of these kits. Depending on your equipment, multiple fasteners of different sizes will be needed to get the job done. Some other kits come with enough gear for an install or two, but not necessarily the right sizes. The set includes three sets in three sizes. When installing an M.2 device, start using the new M.2 device securely in the box, in which it was given to you. Instead, find a small magnet and arrange all the pieces in a magnetic tray or on top of a magnet. Then with good light, a little patience and maybe a magnifying glass (depending on age and health). Locate the area of your computer (motherboard) where the card will be installed and study it a little. A short YouTube presentation might help. This system is a bit unfamiliar and it doesn't hurt to get to know all the participants before starting the fin. Next, install the heat sink on the device, paying attention to distracting details. (The device is designed to help you decide which mounting hole to use. They almost always require a bolt; M. 2 needs to go through the mounting holes/sockets placed there for the shorter dimensions. walk over them without touching them; The rivets are metal, below M.2 all in signal tracks, metal-to-metal contact means problems etc. Install the stud in the appropriate hole. Hand tighten if you don't have the right tools. Then the M.2 card must be carefully inserted into the special socket (at an angle of about 30 degrees) and then carefully lowered onto the bolt you just finger-tightened on top. Screw M.2 down and into stud. Tighten the screw carefully. Nothing needs to be tightened, just tight enough that nothing comes loose with normal handling. Suggestion: buy a small magnet. If it's small enough attach it to the shaft of the tiny screwdriver that came with the kit. If not, try rubbing the magnet a few times with a screwdriver, but not back and forth. The goal is to make the screwdriver slightly magnetized. That way, you can pick the screw up with a screwdriver. Never drop a screw or bolt into a slot in the computer case. If you manage to do this, make sure you find the screw before applying power to the computer. None of that has anything to do with this kit, but it's information that a surprisingly large number don't have. but not back and forth. The goal is to make the screwdriver slightly magnetized.
