Follow these steps to install the Intel M.2 SSD into your compatible system.
5.1. 설치 전 체크리스트
- Compatible motherboard or laptop with an M.2 slot (M-key, PCIe NVMe support).
- 작은 십자 드라이버.
- M.2 mounting screw (usually supplied with the motherboard/laptop).
- 정전기 방지 손목 스트랩(권장).
5.2. 물리적 설치
- 전력 다운: 컴퓨터를 완전히 끄고 벽면 콘센트에서 전원 코드를 뽑으세요.
- 오픈 섀시: Open your computer case or laptop cover to access the motherboard. Refer to your system's manual for instructions on how to safely open it.
- M.2 슬롯 찾기: Identify the M.2 slot on your motherboard. It is typically labeled and may have a pre-installed standoff and screw.
- SSD 삽입: Gently align the notch on the Intel M.2 SSD with the key in the M.2 slot. Insert the SSD at a slight angle (approximately 30 degrees) into the slot until it is fully seated. Do not force it.
- 보안 SSD: Push the SSD down towards the motherboard until it is parallel with the board. Secure it with the M.2 mounting screw into the standoff.
- 섀시 닫기: Replace the computer case or laptop cover and reconnect all cables.
5.3. Post-Installation Configuration
- BIOS/UEFI 설정: Power on your computer and enter the BIOS/UEFI setup. Verify that the M.2 SSD is detected. You may need to enable the M.2 slot or set the boot order if you intend to install an operating system on the new SSD.
- 초기화 및 포맷: For a new SSD, you will need to initialize and format it before it can be used for storage.
- 윈도우: Open Disk Management (right-click Start button > Disk Management). Locate the new SSD, right-click on it, and select 'Initialize Disk'. Choose GPT (GUID Partition Table) for modern systems. Then, right-click on the unallocated space, select 'New Simple Volume', and follow the wizard to format it (NTFS recommended).
- 리눅스: Use tools like
fdiskorgparted드라이브를 파티션하고 포맷합니다.
- 운영 체제 설치(선택 사항): If you plan to install an operating system on the SSD, follow the standard OS installation procedures, selecting the Intel M.2 SSD as the target drive.
6. SSD 작동
Once installed and configured, the Intel M.2 SSD operates like any other storage drive in your system. It will provide significantly faster boot times, application loading, and file transfers due to its NVMe PCIe interface.
- 부팅 드라이브: If an operating system is installed on the SSD, it will serve as your primary boot drive, enhancing overall system responsiveness.
- 보조 저장 장치: If used as a secondary drive, it can store frequently accessed applications, games, or large file빠른 접근을 위해 s를 사용합니다.
