3. Each M.2 slot is equipped with two screws and mounting poles, one for securing
the M.2 SHIELD FROZR heatsink and the other one for shorter M.2 SSD. To avoid
damage to the M.2 SSD. If your M.2 SSD length is the same as the M.2 slot, remove
the screw and mounting pole below the M.2 SSD, leaving only the screw and
mounting pole for securing the M.2 SHIELD FROZR heatsink.
4. There are two thermal pads on each M.2 slot base plate. The thermal pad-2 is
fixed on the M.2 board and should not be removed.
For double-side M.2 SSD, completely remove the thermal pad-1 and protection
films.
For single-side M.2 SSD, remove the two thermal protection films from pad-1,
then re-stick it to the thermal pad-2.

7. If the M.2 SSD is shorter than the M.2 SHIELD FROZR heatsink, place the screw in
the notch on the trailing edge of the M.2 module and tighten it into the mounting
pole.
