They say you learn something new every day.

Well not maybe every day for me, but this weekend I learned that M.2 SSD drives have B key, B + M Key, and M key connectors.

Sadly my Simplecom adapter is only a B key, so off I go hunting the shops for a M key adapter to recover data from a failed computer.

I had not realised how fast the NVMe PCIe M.2 M Key SSDs were. Quite impressive.
