Viper VP4300 User guide

  • Hello! I have carefully reviewed the user guide for the Viper VP4300 PCIe m.2 Gen4 x4 SSD. This document details the installation process for both the graphene and aluminum heatshields, both supplied with the SSD. I am ready to answer any questions you have about the installation or features of this SSD.
  • Can the graphene heatshield be reused?
    What should I avoid covering during heatshield installation?
    Can I use both heatshields together?
Thank you for purchasing the Viper VP4300
PCIe m.2 Gen4 x4 SSD!
