Question Mini ITX Motherboard that Can Handle M.2 2280 SSD?

[Oasis Curator]

I have found a couple but they're from 2015 and so only China has some refurbished ones at £400.
Can anyone point me in the direction of some mini ITX motherboards that can handle a 2280 SSD?
I didn't realise there were different types of NVMe SSDs :/

Processor socket is 1151 Intel i5 9500.
The m2 drive is a Corsair MP510 PCIe Gen 3.

Motherboard for which socket? There's M.2 slots, there are also NVMe and SATA based M.2 drives...2280 is the dimension of said M.2 SSD. So what interface of the M.2 SSD are you looking at support for?

PCIe?
That's all that seems to be added to the sales page on Amazon - I've added to my post as well as the processor I have.

PCIe?
Yes, I forgot to add that next to NVMe.

Processor socket is 1151.
I was hoping for a processor make and model as well.

Probably many.

At pcpartpicker, filtering for 'mini ITX'
The very first one has 2x PCIe 4.0 M.2 ports.

$199 from Amazon, Newegg.

"Total supports 2 x M.2 slots and 4 x SATA 6Gb/s ports"

I did not delve into any others.

Sorry, it's an Intel i5 9500.

I may have found one:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07JBX52TM
But it's a bit expensive at around £100 - £160.

Will look at the parts picker website.

I think the ones I looked at were all 1200 sockets or no NVMe slots but the above one covers both and is fairly new (well, 2019!).

I also did not realise the partpicker website was as good as it is... boy now I feel sheepish!

Yes that board will work for your needs. You can look into pretty much any B360 m-itx or H370 m-itx board as well to pair that i5-9500 processor and Corsair M.2 PCIe 3.0x 4 SSD. Ebay would be your friend on this endeavor, since you're dealing with older generation tech and a brand new old platform motherboard would probably be impossible to get warranty on(or is not going to be feasible to get warranty on in 2022).

Select your CPU.
Add to your parts list.

Then, go to motherboards.
Filter for mini ITX
It will show you only those boards that are compatible.

Delve into the specifics for each.
I see 32 that are mini ITX, compatible with your CPU.
