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 of some of the most popular mSATA compatible models being used today.
"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.

The interesting thing is that typically caching is applied via a program ran from the OS, and if that's the case, you should be able to disable that program and use the mSATA as the boot drive. The issue at that point would be whether or not the mSATA slot will recognize an SSD over 32GB. |

My Acer Model 7551 is not listed but appears to have an mSata slot on the motherboard. Would like to know if my Acer Model 7551 laptop is compatible with mSata SSD drives. Thank you. |

I have a Zotac EN 760 Plus. I have contacted the manufacturer about recommended mSata for this PC. They have no list of recommended mSata cards or mSata drives for this PC. Do you have any suggestions and can it only be used for cache or can it be used as a boot drive. Thanks for the help...
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
We suggest the MyDigitalSSD Super Boot 2 (SB2) series found in the link below. As far as use goes, we did some digging and couldn't find any mention of restrictions with your Zotac's mSATA port so you should be able to set your mSATA as either a boot drive or cache drive. Don't let the name fool you, SB2 SSDs are a great option for either use. https://goo.gl/QqbNXj |

I have a Sprout Pro G1 that has a msata and I install in it and it worked. The original sprout has the same layout and I assume it has one but don't take my word on that.

Hi, Can i upgrade from Samsung SSD 256GB to 1TB in my Dell Latitude 6430u. The laptop is listed as compatible, but can we upgrade to 1TB?
MyDigitalDiscount.com:
Deepak, We couldn't find anything pertaining to your 6430u that would restrict you from doing so but we do suggest upgrading to a 512GB drive as 1TB mSATA drives tend to have more issues due to their design. |

You must merely look for some specialised guides online. There is a oceans of unalike expedient info on the web leo literacy training on the internet nowadays really. I can also persuade you to try one\'s hand at not at home. It is a cool thing indeed. |

Hey there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Ie. I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know. The design look great though! Hope you get the issue resolved soon. Thanks

From what we could find, It doesn't appear so. It seems that slot is only for use with a Bluetooth card.
