Upgrade older systems that use the mSATA form factor with this 256GB 6Gb/s solid state drive. Designed for systems with a true mSATA slot, this drive delivers solid-state performance in a compact internal form factor commonly used in select business laptops, ultrabooks, desktops, mini PCs, and embedded systems. It is a strong replacement option for worn or outdated mSATA storage and is also suitable for many OEM upgrade paths that originally shipped with lower-capacity mSATA cache or SSD modules.

This drive uses the mSATA interface and operates at 3.3V. It is intended for systems that specifically support mSATA storage and is not a replacement for M.2 NGFF, mini PCIe WLAN cards, or NVMe drives.

⚙️ Fit Notes

• This drive requires a true mSATA slot and is not compatible with M.2 NGFF, M.2 SATA, M.2 NVMe, or standard mini PCIe WLAN-only slots.
• Some systems use a shared WWAN/mSATA slot or a factory flash-cache slot, so physical fit alone does not always guarantee full storage functionality.
• Certain platforms may support mSATA as bootable storage, while others may only support it as secondary storage or cache storage depending on BIOS and factory configuration.
• Please verify your original drive type, slot type, mounting method, and BIOS support before ordering.
• If your system originally used a 24GB or 32GB flash cache module, this 256GB mSATA SSD may be a suitable higher-capacity replacement only when the system supports standard mSATA storage recognition.
• This product is intended only for systems that specifically support SATA-based mSATA SSDs at 3.3V.
