I got a WB green m.2 ssd and was going to install it in my asus vivobook s14. I have installed M.2 before but this was strange as the slot just refused to take the M.2 easily. So I asked the IT guy to help and he was able to install it but I noticed that the M.2 ssd was standing in an angle but flat. then I booted it and smoke came out. Now the right side pin of the ssd is burned and right side of slot. I am wonder what was the problem and will I need to replace the slot. if so, can it done without replacing the whole motherboard.

This bothers me: how can something stand both in an angle and flat simultaneously?

Hand, n. A singular instrument worn at the end of the human arm and commonly thrust into somebody’s pocket.

I meant its supposed to stand in an angle and it did not. instead it was flat like I didn't even need the screw.

For all practical purposes, no. Technically yes, but you'd need someone with a lot of skill at working with SMD-components, the necessary tools and the schematics for the mobo.
