mSATA Hard Drive on M4700

Where is the mSATA slot on the M4700?  I have a new 256GB mSATA card and I can't figure out for the life of me where to install it.

Hi  yel05gt ,

Welcome to the Community,

The mSATA card is installed on the Wireless Wide Area Network(WWAN) slot as shown on this image below :

WWAN card is an optional feature on your system model.If you have ordered the system without the WWAN card then that slot will be empty and you can use it to add/Install mSATA card.

For steps to install mSATA card follow the steps for Removing/Replacing Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) Card as shown in the link below :

Note:The card shown in the Image is a WWAN card which has antenna.As mSATA card does not require those antenna cable you can skip the steps regarding disconnecting the antenna cable and you just need to install the mSATA card on that slot.

Hope this helps,

Thank You
