Will you be offering double-width latches to support these 25 mm SSDs? I could always leave gaping holes in the front, but that looks bad.If you have any other question, please feel free to ask.![]()
Agreed. There is no way M.2 22110 can be adapted for E1.S. The E1.S PCB footprint itself only has clearance for less than 100 mm of “icing” on the “cake.” It might be physically possible to hack an adapter that puts the entire M.2 SSD within the bounding volume of the E1.S form factor, but it might be out-of-spec if it’s even physically possible.(1) It is unlikely to fit 22110 M.2 SSD on such adapter due to dimensional restriction. Would this be a concern to your application?
EDIT: If this is any indication, M.2 22110 would likely encroach on the space reserved for the latch:

The standard-set placement of the mounting holes on the PCB limits how close to the card edge the M.2 connector could get. The remainder of the “extra” space at the latch end of the PCB is surely less than the 30 mm needed to accommodate M.2 22110, unless an opening is carved out of the latch area to permit extending past the volume of what’s defined for E1.S.
I’d call it quits on 22110. I found out a while ago that the market absolutely hates 22110. There is very little out there that will accommodate them. After looking around myself, I stopped buying 22110 SSDs, and I’ve pretty much written them all off. There’s still a consolation for your M.2 needs: ToughArmor MB873MP-B V2, though it’s limited to PCIe 4.0.Since I have many M.2 SSDs in the 22110 format

Mine will be sitting in their boxes until I can find a suitable home (a compact bus-powered USB4 enclosure) for them.
