How to Install VisionTek DLX4 Pro

• Power down your computer and unplug it from the wall outlet. If you have a desktop, open the case to access the motherboard; if you’re upgrading a laptop, follow the manufacturer’s service guide for accessing the M.2 slot.
• Locate an available M.2 NVMe PCIe slot on the motherboard. The DLX4 Pro uses the 2280 form factor, so ensure your slot supports M.2 NVMe drives and PCIe 4.0 x4 for optimal performance.
• At a slight angle, align the notches on the DLX4 Pro with the slot and gently insert the edge connector into the socket. Once seated, secure the drive with the mounting screw provided by your system or chassis kit.
• Power on the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI to confirm the NVMe drive is detected. If necessary, enable PCIe/NVMe settings or set the drive as a boot device for OS installation.
• In your operating system, initialize and format the drive as needed (OS drive or data drive). If you’re cloning an existing OS, use a reliable cloning tool to migrate your system to the new DLX4 Pro and boot from the NVMe drive.
