Pro Micro QCM1250, thermal pad and bracket for second 2230 SSD
I'd like to add a second SSD to my stock QCM1250. The drives are commodity parts but I'm having trouble finding the heatsink / thermal shield / bracket that allows them to fit into the 2280 footprint or the thermal pad specs.

I spent almost an hour in chat, but Dell sold me two heatsinks. ( ASSY,HTSINK,2230/2280,SSD - SKU CPX-NPD44 ) They are what you see in the owner's manual, not the original stamped sheet metal part you see inside your chassis. The first is specific to the production model. The other is a cast black anodized HEATSINK for 2280/2230 with thermal pad that they charge $35 for and is not included when you buy a DELL SSD drive.
