N3150-ITX Mini pci-e

[TheeHenryy]

Hi guys,

Getting a little confused here, I want to build a small pc for my parents to use and I want to put in a small SSD in there. The N3150-ITX Integrated cpu board has a Mini PCI-e slot but I am wondering if I can put a small 64GB SSD in there?

A lot of times a Mini PCIe slot can't be use for SSD. That is usually a mSATA slot or a M.2 for PCIe SSD's. I did a quick search and couldn't find anything on using a SSD in the mPCIe slot.

I was hoping to stick an ssd drive too, then if you check the space available.. it wouldn't fit. Plus, the specs refer to a wireless card only.. shame

Yea mSATA and mPCIe are usually physically the same but it all depends if the mPCIe is wired for.
