So how much faster will a mSATA SSD run in this slot compared to standard a 2.5" SATA 3 SSD via a cable?]]> Wed, 18 Nov 2015 07:30:56 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1260&PID=5809&title=h170mitx-dl-which-pcie-msata-ssd#5809 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1260&PID=5787&title=h170mitx-dl-which-pcie-msata-ssd#5787 Author: parsec

Any mSATA SSD can be used with the half size mini-PCI Express slot. That is what the mSATA interface is.

The specs for this board also state that is the case, in the Slots section:

The Asrock  H170M-ITX/DL has a Half-size Mini-PCI Express Slot which can take a mSATA SSD. Which mSATA drives are compatible with this slot? Or can a standard mSATA drive be inserted?]]> Tue, 17 Nov 2015 05:10:25 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1260&PID=5777&title=h170mitx-dl-which-pcie-msata-ssd#5777
