Pinebook Pro?

Yes, you will have to take off the bottom of the laptop held in with 10 screws. Do so only when the laptop is closed (lid and keyboard completely aligned) and powered down. The optional adapter will live under the left palm rest - there are dedicated stand-offs for the adapter - and it plugs right into the main PCB. Its a very small adapter with a long cable -- its not the same adapter as currently shown in the store.
And yes, indeed, heat and power-draw are valid concerns... and something to consider. I can imagine that the heat from some NVMe drives can cause discomfort to some.

So regarding the M.2 SSD, I ordered a Samsung 970 Plus SSD 500GB NVMe, but it’s current draw on average is around 3.43W.  I read (today) that the maximum draw is 2.5W on the Pinebook Pro.

So maybe I should have ordered instead the Seagate Barracuda 510 one as it has a lower average current draw of 2.52W.

Has anyone with the prototype Pinebook Pro models tried an M.2 and if so, which M.2’s did you have good results with?

Thanks.
