Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data storage device technology, and in particular to an M.2 interface solid-state drive connector and a multi-interface hard drive data update device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, most common hard drive data erasure or firmware upgrade devices feature a single interface design, supporting only one or a small number of hard drives simultaneously, and are incompatible with M.2 hard drives of different lengths. For example, traditional devices often use a fixed interface layout, resulting in low operating efficiency and poor compatibility. Furthermore, existing devices are typically bulky, lacking portability and failing to meet rapid deployment requirements. Moreover, current hard drive connection methods involve directly connecting to the hard drive via a single interface, which requires frequent plugging and unplugging. This makes the interface prone to damage, necessitating complete replacement, which is inconvenient and can easily damage other electronic components during replacement.

[0003] Therefore, existing technologies have shortcomings and need to be improved. Utility Model Content

Users do not need to prepare multiple adapters or replace equipment for hard drives of different lengths, reducing usage costs and improving operational convenience. Whether it is a short hard drive for upgrading a laptop or a long hard drive for a server, it can be easily handled to meet diverse market demands.

Since the hard drive interface 23 is specifically located on the second circuit board 22, and the second circuit board 22 is connected to the first circuit board 18 via the connector 21, when the hard drive interface 23 needs to be replaced, only the second circuit board 22 and the hard drive interface 23 need to be replaced as a whole; that is, the second circuit board 22 is unplugged from the connector 21 and a new second circuit board 22 is plugged in. Furthermore, the interface 21 allows for easy replacement of the second circuit board 22, thus enabling data operations on different hard drives by replacing different types of second circuit boards 22.

For solid-state drives of different sizes, the hard drive mounting blocks are fixed on different mounting positions 25, thereby enabling data operations on solid-state drives of different sizes.

The first mounting screw hole 28 and the second mounting screw hole 32 cooperate with each other.
