SSD7502 Hardware Installation:

Step 1. On the rear of the SSD7502, remove the four screws that secure the unit’s heat sink to the PCB.HighPoint SSD7502 2x M.2 Port to PCIe 4.0x16

Step 2. After removing the casing, carefully turn it over to view the thermal pad. The blue film must be removed from the pad before reinstalling the panel. This film protects the pad from damage and foreign objects prior to installation, but will also prevent the pad from transferring heat away from the NVMe SSD’s and controller componentry.

Step 3. These 2 screws are used to install the NVMe SSD

Step 5. Gently insert the SSD into the slot. Refasten the screw to secure the SSD.
Note: Please make sure all disks are clean before you insert them into the slot to avoid unexpected situations.

Step 6. Replace the heat sink after installing all SSDs
Step 7. On the rear of the SSD7502, refasten the 4 screws that were removed in step 1.

Note: Make sure the heatsink & fan assembly are properly aligned with the controller board (PCB), and that it makes full contact with the thermal pad, before refastening it to the SSD7502. If this assembly is improperly installed, the fan, heatsink and thermal pad will be unable to sufficiently cool the NVMe SSD’s and controller componentry, which may result in damage to the SSD’s or controller hardware, performance loss, unstable I/O, and the loss of data.
