Product Slot Introduction:

Both NGFF (M.2) KEY-B slots are designed and manufactured strictly according to industry standards, using high-precision machining processes to ensure that the size accuracy and shape tolerance of the slots are controlled within a very small range, thereby ensuring precise matching with SATA protocol hard drives of different sizes. The contact points inside the slot are made of high-quality metal materials and undergo special gold plating treatment, which not only improves conductivity but also enhances oxidation and wear resistance, ensuring a stable and reliable electrical connection between the hard drive and the slot. At the same time, the fixed structure design of the slot is firm, which can effectively prevent the hard drive from loosening or displacement due to vibration or collision during use, providing a solid physical foundation for the stable operation of the hard drive. Users do not need to worry about data loss or hard drive damage caused by poor connection during use, fully utilizing the storage performance advantages of the hard drive.

Transmission advantages:

Thanks to strict adherence to the SATA3 interface standard and optimized design, this product performs excellently in data transmission. The theoretical transmission speed of SATA3 interface is as high as 6Gbps, which has greatly improved compared to traditional SATA2 interface and can fully meet the data transmission needs of modern high-speed hard drives. In practical use, whether it is fast file transfer, system startup, or running applications that require high hard disk read and write speed, such as video editing, large game loading, etc., efficient and stable data transfer can be achieved, significantly reducing waiting time for data transfer, improving users' work efficiency and entertainment experience, and providing users with smooth and fast storage services.

Usage:

Firstly, select the appropriate NGFF (M.2) KEY-B slot based on the size of the hard drive, carefully insert the hard drive into the slot, ensuring a tight connection between the hard drive and the slot. When inserting, pay attention to the direction of the hard drive and the alignment of the golden fingers to avoid forcefully inserting and causing damage to the hard drive or slot.

After inserting the hard drive into the slot, use the brackets on both sides to secure the hard drive, and then install the bracket with the hard drive onto the 2.5-inch hard drive interface reserved in the chassis, ensuring a secure installation without any looseness.

If two hard drives are inserted at the same time, the hard drive selection toggle switch on the PCB board can be used to select the hard drive to be used. Turn the switch to the corresponding position of the hard drive, and the system will automatically recognize and enable the selected hard drive.

After the computer starts up, users can perform normal operations such as formatting, partitioning, and data storage on the hard drive. When the hard drive is in read-write mode, the LED reading light on the PCB board will light up, and users can observe the status of the light to understand the working condition of the hard drive.
