You'd think it bastard impossible wouldn't you...? But some of the new M.2 SSDs have two key slots and can be fitted both ways...Surely the standard components on top, pins and solder on the bottom technique would have given you a clue... Double-sided...

It buggered the SSD and burnt-out some link on the motherboard... Fortunately, there is a second 2.5" SATA slot on the M/B so we fitted a 'normal' SSD knto that and Bob's yer Uncle like... A €180 cock up....
