Synopsis: Unsure if your tablet or notebook is M.2 NGFF compatible? Click here for our growing list of devices with M.2 NGFF expansion slots. (Updated 6/19/16)

M.2 solid state drives, formerly M.2 NGFF (Next Generation Form Factor), are a great option for upgrading today’s thin/ultra portable notebooks, Ultrabooks, Chromebooks, Mini PCs, and more.

Like mSATA drives* that preceded them, M.2 SSDs offer high-speed performance with low power consumption and can be used as either a cache drive, in tandem with a HDD, or a boot/system drive when running an operating system, programs, and applications.

M.2 SSDs are currently available in both SATA and PCI-e interfaces** that offer 30mm (2230), 42mm (2242), 60mm (2260), 80mm (2280), and 110mm (2210) length form factors to accommodate assorted PCB and motherboard designs.

For maximum connectivity to M.2 ports, M.2 SSDs are available with different keys which offer varying bandwidths. These keys are displayed as different notches on the end of the drive. A drive with a single notch has an 'M' key which provides up to 4x lanes of bandwidth. A drive with two notches at the end have both an ‘M’ key and a 'B' key. This type of key maximizes compatibility in both slots and operates with 2x lanes of bandwidth.

Is my device M.2 compatible?

To help in finding M.2 compatibility, we’ve curated a working list of confirmed M.2 devices below based off manufacturer specifications*** and customer feedback. Each section is broken down by product type for easy perusal. If you know of one we've missed, please let us know in the comments.

"You don’t have xxx device on your list. Does that mean xxx device is not compatible with xxx SSDs?"

Our list is ongoing and always being worked on, and this means that your device might be compatible, but we haven’t got to listing it yet. Leave a comment about your compatibility success and we will add it to our update.

Don’t see your device listed below?
  • Let us find out: Leave a comment asking if your make/model is M.2 compatible.
    Submitted comments are held for approval. Please allow up to 24hrs or longer for comment approval and reply
  • Try consulting our mSATA Compatibility List to see if your device shows up there.

Note: If your device uses "FastBoot" you may have to uncheck this option in the BIOS for it to recognize your SSD (Thank you Anton Hinxman for your comment)

* M.2 SSDs cannot be used in mSATA ports and vice versa.
** M.2 SATA & PCIe ports are not interchangeable unless noted by device manufacturer
*** Device configurations might not support M.2 SSDs. Please contact the device manufacturer for confirmation before making a purchase.

What is the difference between 2242 super boot and 2242 super boot 2?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
Great question! The big difference between the two is the S9 controller with MLC flash (SB) and S11 controller with TLC flash (SB2). Read speeds are roughly the same for both series but the SB2 offers significantly faster write speeds for more responsive performance. If you still have questions, feel free to email info@mydigitaldiscount.com with more details and our tech support team will be happy to help you out!

Hi!
Recently I bought the hd MDNVME80-BPX-0512 and would like to know if it will work correctly on AsRock pro4 b350 on GEN 3 PCIe x4 .
Thank you very much!

The Thinkpad T430s %100 supports M.2 SATA 2242 for booting windows etc.
Barry Tuesday, October 3, 2017 11:13:44 PM
I just want to be absolutely certain before I place my order.

Is the MDNVME80-BPX-0256 compatible with the Asrock X99 Extreme 4?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
Yes the Asrock X99 Extreme 4 is compatible with the MyDigitalSSD BPX M.2 SSD.

Lenovo Yoga 2 13
Intel 600p 128GB SSD M.2 PCIe not work, laptop wont start, no logo, no bios, nothing... Is that ssd ok for Yoga?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
Not all Lenovo Yoga models are built the same, so M.2 compatibility will vary. The Lenovo Yoga 2 13 is not compatible with the Intel 600p SSD this is because it appears to be compatible with M.2 80mm (2280) SATA III SSDs and not PCIe SSDs.
Chris Holmes Sunday, September 24, 2017 01:10:58 AM
I have an Asus Z170 Pro motherboard; it has an M2 x 4 slot...can you recommend a suitable drive for O/S duty?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
If you're looking for adding an OS boot drive to your Asus Z170 Pro motherboard for boot drive purposes then you could add a MyDigitalSSD Super Boot 2 128GB 42mm (2242) or 80mm (2280) SATA III M.2 SSD. This drive will offer enough space for your OS plus some additional programs.

If you wanted to take advantage of the PCIe 3 x4 M.2 speed then you could consider the MyDigitalSSD BPX PCIe 3 x4 80mm (2280) M.2 SSD found here: http://tinyurl.com/ydh4ww49
TJ Wednesday, September 13, 2017 07:42:47 PM
Could you kindly let me know HP EliteBook Folio 9480m supports M.2 NGFF slot ???
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
By looking at the manual for the HP EliteBook Folio 9480m it appears that it is compatible with mSATA SSDs not M.2. Confusingly they added "M.2" to the replacement drive model title. However the heading and image used refers to an mSATA SSD.

hi, i have hp pavilion gaming 15, motherboard hp. is my laptop compatible with ssd m.2 or pcie nmve ssd?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
We would need to know the specific laptop model number for example: HP Pavilion Gaming 15- Ak007tx. The number that follows the 15 is needed to know if your specific model supports M.2 SSDs.
reji Tuesday, August 1, 2017 05:37:10 PM
Please advise,

is MSI Z270 GAMING PRO CARBON compatible with MyDigistalSSD BPX 120gb?

Thank you
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
Yes, the MSI Z270 GAMING PRO CARBON motherboard is compatible with the MyDigitalSSD BPX M.2 PCIe NVMe Gen3 x4 2280 (80mm) SSD
