Hi Banhien,

Thanks for your quick reply. I saw some M2.2280 boards have 2 slots some have one at the end of the board. The one in 'Crucial P1 1TB 3D NAND NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD' has one slot as you suggested. Does the number of slots matter?

Other question is, the M2.2280 with NVMe SSD can be bootable from my laptop? Thanks!
