Is There Anything Wrong With This M.2 Situation?

DrGreer · Nov 2, 2016

I have an Asus X99-E-10G WS motherboard: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/X99-E-10G-WS/specifications/

And a Samsung PM951 M.2 drive. I just got my mobo mounted and am too tired to complete the build tonight so no turning it on yet but when I connected the m.2 drive, I inserted it straight into the slot and then it kinda propped up away from the board (Nothing to hold it down) so now it's like a stick of gum flapping in the wind. Is this normal? lol. It seems weird.

Thanks.

The have a screw at the end of the M2 to retain them in place (you could see half of the hole at the end).
And no, the screw dont come on a lot of M.2 drives.

Just remembered a knob looking thing on my mobo and didn't realize it was a screw. Hopped out of bed, put wristband on, and mounted m.2. I should have realized that. Thanks.
