    Hello,

    I bought this tiny ssd for jumper ezbook 3 pro: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/KingSpec-22-42mm-NGFF-SSD-256GB-SATA-III-6Gb-s-Internal-Solid-State-Drive-NGFF-For/32741153443.html

    Since gearbest didn’t ship ezbook 3 pro for a long time, i canceled it but the ssd was already shipped. Now when i try to put to second ssd slot of air 13, the device doesn’t work (not even give response) till i remove it. What could be wrong in this case?

    is it formatted correctly, does it show in the bios and you inserted it correctly?

    After putting it to the  second ssd slot, the device acts like completely dead so I couldn’t reach bios. I guess I did it correctly, since the ssd is shorter than the slot I put it with a tape. But computer doesn’t turn on until I remove it. After removing it and pushing the power button it started turning on and off 2-3 times, then turned on normally. I guess this is because I pressed to power button 2-3 times while the second ssd was inserted.

    Must not be pushed incorrectly in the slot then the contacts or it came loose. But it should work in there. if you can a 2280 SSD would be better in the long run as with movements etc after time that SSD might come loose.

    I pushed it pretty hard actually. Maybe the tape i used couldn’t keep it in place. If it is as you say that wouldn’t be problem, cause i need to sell the ssd and i don’t want to sell any broken thing 😀 Thanks for replies Chris.
