Anyone know the size of the m.2 screw that goes into the m.2 standoff? The standoff itself is an M2 screw but the whole on top is slightly smaller and I have stripped the screw. Thanks.

    In the mean time if you need your computer up and running you can always use the screw from the other m.2 slot

    Thanks for your reply. I have the micro board so I only have one slot unless I missed something but thank you for the idea. I have registered and hopefully they can send me one.

    The m2 mounting screws should be handled by the right Philips screw driver, otherwise it may damage the threads on the screw.

    Having issues with the small screw that holds the M.2 SSD at the 80mm position, the screw is not long enough.
    The 80mm position has an adapter that screws into the motherboard and the screw that holds the SSD screws into that adapter at the 80mm position, the screw is too short not long enough to even get the treads started, also the screw head is too small barley covers the notch in the M.2 SSD.
    My M.2 SSD is a 1TB GAMMIX S11 PRO P/N: AGAMMIXS11P-1TT-C
    Please advise?

    Hello,
    Sorry to hear about the issue with the M.2 screw. Unfortunately, we only have one size of M.2 screw available and it is the same screw which comes with the motherboard. The screws that comes with the motherboard is a M2 x 2.5mm size screw, so if you are looking for a longer screw I would suggest a M2 x 3.5mm or 4mm length screw to be able to tighten down your M.2 drive. M2 threaded screws are fairly common and can be found at various online retailers and sometimes even general hardware stores such as Home Depot.

    You started your own topic. Locking this thread as it was over a year and a half old.
