| 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? |

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: http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M-ITXDL/?cat=Specifications" rel="nofollow - http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H170M-ITXDL/?cat=Specifications ------------- http://valid.x86.fr/48rujh" rel="nofollow">

| So how much faster will a mSATA SSD run in this slot compared to standard a 2.5" SATA 3 SSD via a cable? |
