NVMe M.2 screw and post size

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I recently decided to update my rig to three NVMe SSDs and found myself scurrying to find the screws and posts to mount them to the MB. I could only find one. I checked the MB box, checked the MB to make sure the screws and posts were not already mounted, but no luck. Does anyone know the size of the screw and posts used? MB is X299 Taichi

	Well, I looked yesterday and found that it is 2mm long and 3mm wide. Post dimensions were shown too! All I entered was " NVMe M.2 screw".

	Thanks, I did search Amazon for ASRock NVMe screws and found that there are a few different sizes from 2.0mm up to 3.5mm. Might just buy an assortment and see what works. Thanks for responding
