Hi there,
So I'm working on an old hp notebook, It's a Elitebook 2540p, and I find this slot just next to the wireless anthena an I wonder if it is a mSATA slot, so I could install an 1.8 inch ssd. So far the manual or specs sheet given by HP dont't mention this slot, but, cmon', looks like one, wright?

I watched a bunch of vids where people use the sata port where the 1.8' hard drive is with an enclosure adapter for ssd's and the optical drive bay, where you can use a caddy for 2.5 drives.. but.... it seems that it will not take advantage of the full r/w speeds of an ssd when this last option is choosen.
Sooo.... idk.....It would be wiser to save some bucks if the msata works but haven't find anyone that use it for a fast storage solution.

I well appreciate any tips/information that anyone can share.
