I made small NAS for home usage with old D525MW board . It has PCI Express Mini Card slot and i have mSata SSD witch i'm trying to connect. Is there any adapter that would do trick ? Or sata adapter so i switch disk to this slot and use another adapter for mSata to Sata??

Board allso support
USB front panel header with Intel Z-U130 USB Solid-State Drive (or compatible device) support
if that helps

Yes i have same doubts. I stumble on that few days ago but i'm not sure will it work.
I contacted several ebayu sellers with question "will it work" none of them answerd to me :(
I was kinda hoping someone here will know or had better solution then me

I needed to solder 2 pins together and now works perfect
