I'm building my PC and I've hit a snag with my M.2 SSD. I can't seem to unscrew the slot, even though I have the right screwdriver. I think I just can't generate enough torque. Can anyone recommend a good screwdriver or technique to help? By the way, I'm using a B650 Gaming X AX V2 motherboard, and I've seen that someone else had a similar problem.

Is the screw stripped at all? Sometimes that can make it impossible to get a grip on it.
Typically, the issue is using a screwdriver that's either too small or too large, which can strip the screw head. If it is slightly stripped, try a bigger Phillips head and press down hard as you turn it slowly. Once you get it out, replace it with a new screw—there are kits available on Amazon if needed!
