Go to [Kit Assembly](/helios64/kit) to find out how to put together your Helios64 NAS
|
||
|
|
||
|
## **Install Method**
|
||
|
There is several ways to install OS to your Helios64 board:
|
||
|
|
||
|
**1. [Install to micro-SD Card](/helios64/install-1)<br>**
|
||
|
**2. [Install to the eMMC module via micro-SD Card](/helios64/install-2)<br>**
|
||
|
**3. [Install to eMMC module directly via USB-C cable](/helios64/install-3)<br>**
|
||
|
**4. [Install on USB drive](/helios64/install-4)<br>**
|
||
|
**5. [Install on M.2 NVMe drive](/helios64/install-5)<br>**
|
||
|
|
||
|
Different choice of storage resulting in different IO read/write speed, this may affect the performance of installed OS.
|
