M.2 SSDs tend to be 3 millimeters thick, 22 millimeters wide and either 60 millimeters or 80 millimeters long, with some variation.  Ameri-Shred's cutterheads are available on all of its new SSD shredders as an upgrade. For customers who already own a shredder, they're also available as a retrofit upgrade package for any model purchased after 2018.
