About this deal

M3X3 screw(most computers include these. These secure the Y1WJX M.2 drive carrier, or a 2.5" drive into 745TM) M2 screws are typically used in the manufacture of small items of electrical equipment, laptops, cameras and mobile phones. The “M” designation for metric screws indicates the outer diameter of the screw in millimetres, so for an M2 screw, the outer diameter is 2mm. However, in practice the actual diameter might be between 1.9mm-2mm due to manufacturing tolerances.

Just make sure you don’t destroy anything by trying to jam in a screw that’s way too big. Tape the M.2 Drive Down M.2 storage devices are classified numerically based on performance. The higher the Class, the faster the overall performance:This is certainly not recommended for any serious or long-term use, but can be done for short sessions of data copying or if your screw is arriving the next day. FAQ Do You Need a Standoff for M.2 SSDs? So if you want to buy some screws for M.2 standoffs, what you need are M2 screws. Specifically, you want to get the following M.2 screw size: “ M2x3mm“. MacGyver it (Not Recommended)

Some motherboards don’t have standoffs. Some do, and you need to install them. Some come with them pre-installed. And so on. Get some actual M.2 screws and do it right. But in the meantime… Look for Old Small Screws in Your Home Now, sometimes, we just have to wing it and find a way to make it work. You’re missing that M.2 screw but you still want to finish setting up your PC now, and not in 3 days when the new screw arrives, right? So you don’t need to screw them in, but it’s such a simple and easy safety measure, there’s no point not doing it. These are some tips to make it work (temporarily), but I don’t recommend doing them if at all possible, and if you do, make sure that you don’t just leave it like that.M.2 Drives don’t really need to be screwed down flat onto the motherboard, they temporarily (!) work perfectly fine just hovering at an angle of 30°. Hopefully, that explained everything you wanted to know about what you can do if you lose an M.2 screw!
