    Nope. The screw's only use for securing the hdd bay during shipment.
    If you unscrew it, the lock will work as it does work...;)

    Hey guys I'm curious is there a way to get a second drive in the m4600 but leave the sata as the main disk?

    I have an ocz max iops drive I want as the main disk but I want to offload some tasks to a second location and the msata or mpcie seem perfect but I'm not sure it works.

    Dell said that if you use the mini pcie slot then that disk had to be the boot drive and that's not what I'm looking for exactly

    So on your machine you could boot from your Scorpio and use your soda creek as your secondary d drive?

    Just making sure before I order one
