mSATA SSD in WWAN location in e7240

Hello

I am interested in getting an mSATA SSD in the WWAN slot in e7240. Apart from the LITEON SSD (which doesn't seem to be available in my position), what other SSD can be used? If you use a SSD in this slot, I would like to know the make and model and additional effort/questions that you face?

Thank you.

Replying to my own post in case anyone else has the same question. The mSATA Samsung Evo fits well. Unfortunately it does not come with a screw and the seller did not have a spare or (!). So I went with the Plextor M6M (which is the same as the LITEON SSD Dell has default SSD). Works very well.

    Sorry, but this laptop does not have the ability to install an mSATA.

    I'll order a X 220 and I was wondering if the view Type options (antenna) or the WiFi options integrated importance in my ability to add an mSata card?

    I want the i7 processor, premium best screen Wifi which will allow me to use a card mSata.

    No, the only thing that would limit you to use mSATA SSD if you order a card WWAN (3 G internet cell), because it uses the same location.

  • mSata SSD - M500 Crucial 240 GB for ProBook 6560 b

    Hi all

    I have ProBook 6560 b,

    today I try install mSata SSD - M500 Crucial 240 GB and I got this message on the screen of the BIOS:

    The system detected that a module installed in the system wireless is

    not taken in charge and disabled.

    WWAN Module ID (703)

    ENTER - continue starting

    ...

    Do you guys know how to fix this?

    Looking through the Service & maintenance guide, I don't see the possibility to upgrade with an mSATA SSD. It is, unfortunately, a bit of a non standard upgrade path.  Your BIOS is expecting a different type of module to be connected to the location that you have plugged your mSATA SSD in.  If you want to upgrade to an SSD, then you will need to use a SATA SSD.

    As seen in the picture below (from the maintenance & service Guide). This means making a choice on the use of the Bay when a DVD player is likely to resident currently in your laptop.

  • X131e - msata ssd ThinkPad

    Hello

    I ordered a x131e thinkpad and I'm currently waiting for delivery.

    At the same time, I would like to order an msata ssd card to install in one of the two mini pci-e ports (for the installation of the OS).

    I saw in the hardware maintenance manual p63-64 (http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/x131e_en_hmm_0b48698_01.pdf ) that the msata ssd card can be installed in the WWAN card slot full size.

    Issues related to the:

    -the slot for WWAN card full size is free by default... I guess that Yes, because the wireless card that comes with X131e is a half size Intel Centrino wireless - N 2230, which should be in the other mini pci-e slot (known as the wireless LAN slot)?

    -What is the size of the msata ssd card that could be installed in the free location? There are several length of the msata ssd card (25, 50 and 70 mm)... I guess it is 50mm?

    -There are different types of cards msata ssd: sata2 or sata3... make thinkpad x131e sata3 msata ssd card support?

    Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English level

    Visegrad,

    Given that the integrated SATA controller is SATA2, it will probably support mSATA2. I hope that this solves all your questions. If you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask!

    And once again, thank you Visegrad to be part of the community of Lenovo.

  • X 220 mSATA SSD & Questions ExpressCard

    Hi all

    I want to take my first ever thinkpad X 220 for the last two months and I love it. She is beautiful and powerful machine.

    The machine's high-end x 220 series. The only thing missing is an SSD.

    1. a card Ericsson GSM/GPS system. This means, so I can't install mSATA?

    2. I would like to replace my HDD with SSD. What other other than that of you lenovos SSD tested successfully and help? Lenovo SSD's are * beep * expensive.

    3. what 54 mm expresscardis are useful for me? I would like to increase storage. What brand/model do you recommend?

    I have also noticed the screen light bleeding. This isn't annoys me a lot. But I've seen much complaining about this. Is there a solution to this problem?

    Thanking you in advance.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    The X 220 has two locations of MiniPCIe , accepting a "full-height" card which is ~ 51 mm long.  The other accepts a "half-height" card, which is about 28 mm long.  In X 220, the low-profile connector contains the Wi - Fi adapter (wireless 802.11n), while the slot full height contains the WWAN (3 G modem) adapter.

    The slot full height on the X 220 is designed to install a MiniPCIe or mSATA card.  I don't know if the low-profile slot will recognize an mSATA card.  If you want to use an mSATA SSD in your X 220, you need to remove the map of Ericsson GSM/GPS.  You can then use something like a 3G hotspot for connectivity.

    The 220 has a X drive Bay 2.5 "hard, but this Bay only accepts a high 7 mm, not the more common drive 9.5 mm high readers.  There are, however, many hard disk (up to 500 GB, 7200 RPM) and solid state Drive (up to 600 GB) that go into the drive Bay.  I haven't used a 7mm high SSD before, but have seen some for sale on the web site of the American retailer NewEgg.

    I used a Wintec 48 GB ExpressCard SSD in my W510 for storage and it has worked well, although it hot after being in the system for a while.  64, 96 and 128 GB models are now available as well.  I guess these work identically in the 220 X, but I don't think they are bootable.  Here are the 34mm card rack, then you want to get a small plastic wedge that fills in the rest 20mm if that open is a problem.  You could also install an ExpressCard/54 location with ports USB 3.0 or eSATA for connecting external storage.

  • 311c-1120EC: compaq mini 311 & mSATA SSD

    Please, is this model mSATA port for mSATA SSD HDD? I'm not sure... Is - this Port SSD mSATA or modem WAN?

    Thank you...

    Here is the Manual:

    Manual

    See pp. 4-13. It is a WWAN port and would not recognize a storage mSATA device.

    See p. 4-18 for the installation of the hard disk. Should be a SATA SSD.

  • X 230 mSATA SSD with possible edge to 3 G?

    I want to upgrade my x 230 with an SSD. My model is the NZD79MS with integrated 3 G WWAN and a 500 GB HARD drive. I wonder if I can add an mSATA SSD to use as system disk and keep the HARD disk provided as secondary data drive, or if the mSATA space is occupied with the WWAN module. I really don't want to lose the functionality of 3G or use an external dongle for 3G connectivity, so sacrificing the WWAN module is not an option. I was not able to find this information: can I WWAN and mSATA SSD at the same time on my x 230?

    In general, the WWAN card and mSATA card must be in the same housing at the same time, which is not possible.

  • ENVY 17 t-k000 CTO: can I install an mSATA ssd in my HP ENVY 17 t-k000 CTO Notebook PC?

    Can I install an mSATA ssd in my PC HP ENVY 17 t-k000 CTO Notebook? Added a SDS SATA 250 GB and 8 GB memory chip today but don't can find any way to add also a 250 GB mSATA SDS. I looked on the side in front and back of the system board.

    I would return the mSATA EVO 840 Samsung SSD, I bought from Newegg?

    The repair is no help whatsoever. It is said a WSSD m2 is supported 'model', but there is no picture of it in the manual or the indication when it is on the models 'select '. Those who have it use a version of m2 (connector three blades 2 not) so your Evo 840 would not work even if you had one of the models 'select '. I think that on those who have it that the port m2 is located on the motherboard so if you don't see it you are not among the selection.

  • ProBook 6470b: mSATA SSD in a Probook 6470 b

    Hey

    I just want to tell you is possble to install an mSATA SSD in a HP Probook 6470b. While I don't see a present pci slot which can be adapted for an mSATA ssd, I don't want to face any questions that he might not be guilty or bios regonise the reader, etc.. My idea is to have the mSATA SDS which will serve as my boot device and have a 1 TB or 2 TB 2.5' HDD for data. Right now I use a samsung 840 EVO SSD 2.5' as my boot drive.

    Kind regards

    Nick

    Here's what it says in the Manual:

    Flash module 24 GB of cache mSATA Intel (Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT), not available on computer models equipped with WWAN or SSD)

    So yes, you can insert a disc of the WSSD in the pci-e slot you see. However, it is designed only to be used as cache acceleration and not as a main boot drive. This means that it will be bootable, but only as long as a regular SATA HDD or SSD is not present. It is the oldest mSATA material used with the Intel Core processors 3rd generation on business models and processors of gen 4th on consumption patterns. Later models can use the slot of the WSSD to boot, but not yours without significant configuration involving a bootloader installed on the SATA drive.

  • Hard drive not detected after adding 2nd mSATA SSD for HP Envy 14 1002tx

    Hello

    I'm having a problem when adding an extra mSATA SSD for my HP Envy 1002tx model.

    The laptop comes with a 500 GB HARD drive and I see that there is a 2.5 "mSATA SSD slot under the HARD drive, so I bought the same type of SSD and installed it but when I turn on the laptop, it does not introduce yourself. I don't know why?

    I want to have an SSD for boot up the laptop and HARD drive to store animals.

    If anyone knows if there is any software I have to install in order for the laptop to recognize the SSD?

    OR

    Is - this material is defective?

    Thank you in advance!

    Remove the hard drive and try to start only with the mSATA SSD.

    Did this and it showed "No. Bootable Device Insert boot disk and press any key"

    I'm really sorry, I could not find this before, but the slot under the hard drive is not compatible with the mSATA disks. It's for WWAN modules! Your laptop is not like 4 I thought, but Envy 14 equipped with the first generation of Intel processors. Envy 14-Sandy Bridge 2000 series could be BIOS modded to make the miniPCI-e interface works with the mSATA disks but Envy 14-1000 series is not possible to change.

    Edit: 2.5 "drive 256GB solid state drive is listed as compatible.

    I hope it's just a matter of configuration/drivers, etc...

    No, it's a physical barrier. Is the accommodation that you turn the player mSATA in p.50 indicated on the manual here? :

    Repair manuals

    This port is a card WWAN (cellular modem) only. Your laptop is the Intel Core 2d era generation and utilization of disks mSATA even for cache acceleration did not really catch up to the 3rd generation. The circuits to see and make use of the mSATA drive is simply not present in this laptop. I'm sorry.

  • X 220 i7 Msata SSD

    Hi guys,.

    First post here. Had my X 220 for 2 years and decided to upgrade to Msata HARD drive. I bought some Plextor M5M 128 GB MSATA SSD and it won't fit into the PCI express slot. I assumed that all the Msata SSD should have the physical size of standard material. I was wondering if anyone here has x 220 work with Plextor M5M Msata.

    Thank you

    Looks like that something is hindering the mSATA card insertion slot.

    Try this, take off your wireless card and see if you can insert it into the mSATA/WWAN slot.

  • ProBook 6450 b (ATI): the upgrade of my Probook with mSATA SSD

    Hello! ProBook 6450 b. I want to upgrade my computer with mSATA SSD drive. I've got slot free mini-PCIE (what is expected for the WWAN card). The problem is that I don't know if this Probook (updated of course!) BIOS supports modyfications like this. Can anyone help?

    Kind regards!

    I happen to be sitting here with his cousin the 6530 b working on it for a friend and I can tell you that it is earlier than mSATA WSSD readers. The crack is only for a WWAN card. If you put a disc mSATA in it the computer does not respond.
