How do I add more storage to my ASRock iBOX 1200 Series?

[StCharles]

Expanding the storage on your ASRock iBOX 1200 Series is a straightforward process. Here's how to do it, along with important considerations:

For M.2 SSD Installation:

1. Locate the M.2 slot on the motherboard inside the iBOX 1200 Series case.
2. Carefully insert your M.2 SSD into the slot.
3. Secure the M.2 SSD by tightening the appropriate screw.

For 2.5-inch Hard Drive Installation (Note: While possible, this is not recommended):

1. Remove the four screws located on the bottom case of your iBOX 1200 Series and carefully lift off the bottom panel.
2. Attach the HDD cage to the bottom panel and secure it using the provided screws.
3. Connect the SATA data and power cables to your 2.5-inch HDD.
4. Reinstall the bottom panel, ensuring it is properly secured.

Important Considerations:

• ASRock does not recommend installing a 2.5" HDD. If you choose to install one, consider placing your iBOX 1200 Series in a vertical position to improve cooling.
• Always verify that the storage device you're installing is compatible with the iBOX 1200 Series regarding type and size.
• To prevent damage from static electricity, ensure you follow proper grounding procedures during the installation process.
• For detailed visual guidance specific to your ASRock iBOX 1200 Series model, always refer to your user manual.
