I received my m.2 adapter board for the Pinebook Pro about a week ago. My kit came with the adapter board, 4 black screws, a brass-standoff for the m.2 drive, and the ribbon cable.
Three of the black screws are used to hold the adapter board in place, and the fourth I used from the bottom of the board to hold the brass-standoff in place. That leaves me with no m.2 hold-down screw. Also, the black screw used to hold the brass-standoff in place is too long and blocks you from being able to put a hold-down screw in the top of the standoff. Furthermore, the heads of the black screws are too small and can't be used as a hold-down screw as they aren't big enough to grab the edge of the m.2 drive. So is my kit missing a hold-down screw for the m.2 drive? And what do you do about the excessive length of the black screw holding the brass-standoff in place? The screw is so small that you can't hold it if you want to try to file down its length. Any constructive feedback appreciated.
