A Question when installing them on my main-board I'm using the 250gig Drive on the top slot and it has the MSI "Clip" to "hold" the drive in place. The bit that has puzzled me is how do I get the heat sink back on over the drive?



It seems to me to have its separate mounting stand off to enable you to put the heat sink back on? Which I have ordered from Amazon?

normally you just mount them and put the cover over before screwing in both at the same time they kinda clip in.

That's what I've looked at - with the clip it just holds the drive in, and I couldn't see how the cover goes on, so I've come to the conclusion it needs an M.2 Stand off to hold in place and the cover will go snug on top.

yea stand off under drive then put drive in, place cover over the top, then screw down both with the one screw at the end it's how I've always known it to be at least.
