## Questions & Answers

**Q: what's its weight? could I put it in a backpack on an airplane?**
A: A couple of kg. Yes you can put it in a backpack.

**Q: does this support m.2 ultra speed?**
A: Yes it does. I had a Samsung 960 Pro in mine and it was getting ultra speed. 

I sold my Magnus in the end, It had too many compromises and was really noisy under load. It's basically a laptop config.
