SSD Compatibility Lists

mSATA solid state drives are some of the hottest SSDs on the market today, popping up in a variety of the latest mobile devices, netbooks, and notebook PCs. As time goes on, more and more people are catching wind of the SSD trend, which is no surprise to us since the performance of these drives are head and shoulders above the rest. There is really so much to love about these mSATAs - the difference is very noticeable when a small PC notebook using an mSATA SSD can boot-up and load applications faster than a top-of-the-line HDD desktop only five years ago.
At My Digital Discount, we have had a number of customers ask us if their computers are mSATA compatible. The following is a list is a compilation of some of the most popular mSATA compatible models being used today. This list is ongoing and routinely updated with new devices when we confirm compatibility.

Airgetcha, Netbooks did have greater support for mPCIe cards in mSATA slots after 2012, however this may not be the case for laptops. The card may fit, but the pins might be wired to accept a WWAN card or other. Cannot give you a 100% confirmation on that as our research has restrictions. |

Thank You for your reply Just one more question, I searched through the comment section and read one of your posts that pertains, I believe, to my laptop. Notebooks produced before first quarter 2012 that have mini PCI-e slots will NOT be msata compliant. I think this is the case for my situation but I may able to use the "SuperTalent CoreStore miniPCI-e SSD? anychance you could confirm this? Thank You Airgetcha |

Airgetcha, Sorry, we could not confirm if adding an mSATA connector will guarantee mSATA SSD compatibility with your ACER Aspire 3830tg-6431 -------------------------------------- Pete Yes, the Acer Aspire S7-392 is compatible with mSATA SSDs. We will add it to our list. |

We have an Acer Aspire S7-392. Will this drive work (you have the earlier model 391 listed as being a compatible drive)? |

Model: Acer 3830tg-6431 I have unused pinouts (no slot) PCI-e/msata? I believe this was for 3G(WWan). could I use one of your SSD's if I soldered mSATA, Receptacle, R/A SMT, Btm Mt, 30u" ....to my MOBO? |

souki, Wow that model name?!!? Yes the Acer Aspire S5-391-53314G12akk is compatible with mSATA SSDs, and we will add it to our list. Something to consider when upgrading the storage is that the Acer Aspire S5-391 ships with 2 mSATA SSDs in RAID 0 |

EDIT 12/18/2015: Nick, Apologies, that is in fact the wrong size SSD and will not fit in your laptop. You will need a half-mSATA SSD like the MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2 half-mSATA found here: http://tinyurl.com/lk7dwdz ---------------------------- Nick, My mistake overlooked that one, yes the MyDigitalSSD 24GB Super Cache 2 is fine, and we stock that here: http://tinyurl.com/o5g4wtn |

Isnt this what I need? http://www.amazon.com/MyDigitalSSD-Super-Cache-mSATA-HybriDisk/dp/B00DY5C74K/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1450276692&sr=1-1-fkmr1&keywords=mSATA+Mini+24gb+SSD+for+cache+hynix |

Nick, You should be OK with a half-mSATA SSD at a larger capacity than 24GB if that interests you. The MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2 comes with HybriDisk caching software that will enable your device to recognize the SSD even if natively your laptop does not. You can find the MyDigitalSSD Super Cache 2 half-mSATA SSDs here: http://tinyurl.com/lk7dwdz Currently, 24GB half-mSATA SSDs are a difficult find, from new to used |
