01:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller: ADATA Technology Co., Ltd. XPG SX8200 Pro PCIe Gen3x4 M.2 2280 Solid State Drive (rev 03)
I have an XPG SX8200 Pro 256GB (M.2 2280)
Bought it in November and was waiting for a fixed version of the ribbon cable but I couldn't wait anymore and installed the drive two weeks ago.
I have shifted the location of the M.2 adapter and am not using the standoff screw to avoid interfering with the touchpad. I happen to have double-sided adhesive tape available that is for electronic devices (the very thin type that would be used in phones) and I used that to secure the drive to the adapter. The ribbon connector is a bit warped but I tried to avoid making any hard kinks. Seems to be working so far and the kludgy setup is invisible once the bottom cover is back on.
