and on closer inspection I think that slot pinout is not M.2 anyway.

What an intersting thread. I wonder if changing the CPU would be possible for TS-253D.

You need to check the Socket pins for the new CPU.

Question: On my Qnap TS-470 Pro I did a CPU upgraded to i7 3770T. Everything seem Ok and normal but I have a question about the Fan, which way does the fan go in? Does it blow air in or blows air out? My i7 3770T temp is 33 C or 102 degrees. Normal or High? I installed the logo on the fan out against the metal backing frame. Can someone tell me which way the fan should be installed?
