minus-square lud ( @lud@lemm.ee ) linkfedilink3•1 year agoI have seen quite a few posts of users physically cutting the bigger variants into the smaller one because in some cases it was just an extra blank PCB beyond that small size. I think the reason was that it was cheaper than just buying a 2230 SSD.
minus-square sparkl_motion ( @sparkl_motion@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink1•1 year agoAhh, I never knew that was a specific size. I haven’t bought an NVME drive like this before but read a few mentions of that need. Many thanks for clarifying and steering me down the right path. Have an excellent day, mate!
