R1508 Hardware Installation

Step 1. On the rear of the R1508, remove the six screws that secure the

unit’s heat sink to the PCB.

Step 2. After removing the screws, carefully remove the fan’s power

cable from the right-side of the heatsink as shown below, then

carefully flip the heatsink to the left (like turning a page from a

book).

Note: Take care when moving the heatsink to prevent damaging

the left fan’s power cable.

Step 3. After removing the casing, carefully turn it over to view the

thermal pad. The blue films must be removed from the pad before

reinstalling the panel. These films protect the pad from damage

and foreign objects prior to installation, however, they will also

prevent the thermal pad from conducting the heat away from the

NVMe SSDs if not removed.

Step 4. These 8 screws are used to install the NVMe SSDs.

The R1508 can support 2242, 2260, and 2280 form factor M.2

NVMe SSDs.

Step 5. Please remove these screws from each of the M.2 slots.

Step 6. Gently insert the NVMe SSD into the M.2 slot.

Note: Please make sure all disks are clean before you insert them

into the slot to avoid unexpected situations.

Step 7. Refasten the screw to secure the NVMe SSD.

Repeat Steps 5 to 7 to install the remaining NVMe SSDs.

The following example shows eight Gen4 NVMe SSDs installed into

Ports 1-8:

Step 8. After installing all NVMe SSDs, carefully flip the heatsink to

the right.

Note: Make sure the NVMe SSDs are carefully, but securely

installed into each M.2 port. Loose connections can cause a

variety of stability and performance issues, and may ultimately

result in data loss.

Step 9. Carefully reinsert in the power supply cable of the cooling fan

that was removed in step 2.

Step 10. On the rear of the R1508, refasten the 6 screws that were

removed in step 1.

Note: Make sure the aluminum cover is properly aligned with the

controller board (PCB), and that it makes full contact with the

thermal pad, before refastening it to the R1508. If the cover is

improperly installed, the fan and thermal pad will be unable to

sufficiently cool the NVMe SSDs and controller componentry,

which may result in damage to the NVMe SSDs or controller

hardware, performance loss, unstable I/O, and the loss of data.

Step 11. Power up the SSD external power supply.

Note:If the external power supply is not powered on, the NVMe

SSDs may drop offline or remain undetected, which could lead to

data loss.

R1508 relies on two power sources to support eight NVMe SSDs;

power supplied through the PCIe bus, and power from the

system’s PSU via an external 6 pin PCIe power cable. If the

external cable is not connected, there will be insufficient power to

support all 8 NVMe SSDs; this may cause the NVMe SSDs to

drop offline.

Step 12. If you are using a 2019 Intel Mac Pro Workstation or 2023 M2

Mac Pro Workstation, you will need to purchase the Belkin AUX

Power Cable Kit from the Apple Store. The kit includes seven

AUX power cables; four 8-pin to 6+2 pin cables (for use with the

Rocket 1508), two 6-pin to 6-pin cables, and a single 8-pin to dual

6-pin cable.

a. Connect the 8-pin power connector of the Belkin AUX Power

Cable to the 2019 Intel Mac Pro Workstation.

b. Connect the 6-pin power connector of the Belkin AUX Power

Cable to the side of the R1508.
