Hi my m.2 screw head came off on the hole and the bottom of the screw is stuck what should i do 

Pics would help, but if I'm understanding properly, you'll want a pair of pliers.

Just to be clear, the head of the screw snapped off and the threads of the screw are still in the stand off? How in the world did this happen? These screws should never have any amount of torque behind them to cause this.

Can you remove the stand-off? It may be easier to replace it all together if you can't remove the threads. 

ask me about my homelab
