NOTES
   
- 1) Additional spacer required for SSD lengths 2260, 2242 and 2230 (not supplied with X872)
- 2) A microSD card is required for forcing the Raspbian OS to use the HDD/SSD for its "root" partition
- NVMe SATA SSD is not included
- Compatible with NVMe M.2 SSDs
- Not compatible with M.2 SATA SSDs, M.2 PCIe AHCI SSDs, or other M.2 non-NVMe devices
- As with all SSDs, new media must be formatted before use
- SSDs use exceptionally high performance storage media that will run hot when under load
- Older SSD drives with less efficient flash media may not perform as well as newer drives
