Thank you, [NAME] and [NAME], for helping me figure it out! For anyone else, here is the procedure for installing an M.2 SSD into a Dell XPS 8940 that doesn't currently have one. 1. Move the Phillips-head screw from 2230 to 2280. The screw has a hole down the center that we will put another screw in. 2. Insert the SSD into the M.2 slot and push it down until it touches the screw in 2280. 3. Insert an m2 x 3mm screw to hold down the SSD. You will need to purchase one as it doesn't come with the computer. You can get them on Amazon. Also, you will probably need a longer screw if you want to put on a washer.
I'm looking to install an M.2 SSD in my XPS 8940, but it seems like I'm missing a screw.It appears that I would put the screw in the hole labeled 2280, but I don't know where I would get that screw.There is a screw in the hole labeled 2230, but I assume that screw needs to remain in place.Thanks,Bill[IMAGE]
