Trying to upgrade the SSD i got bad luck with one screw and surprise, this happened. Is it dead? Photo Here
which laptop is it exactly? brand and model number on the label please
and, how exactly did you manage to break it? ^^
try plugging in a cheap ssd for testing. Could still work , but be sure the pins on Top are not bent to the left or right
Good job.I could remove more of the plastic and try to unbend these 3 pins 😬
Well... after a while i installed the new ssd m2 and tried to install the windows and... well, all drivers and everything running fine so far (can't believe). Even did some benchmarking, stress test and gaming lol...without problemsGood job.
I'd suggest, you do not turn on this laptop anymore.
If M.2 slot is directly cpu connected and pins are shorted, by turning it on you could damage cpu.
Get your laptop to a service center and ask to replace broken M.2 slot.
