Dell latitute e5430 upgrade
Salve,
Al momento ho un dell latitude e5430 non V-Pro così configurato:
Versione/data BIOS Dell Inc. A21, 30/11/2018
Versione SMBIOS 2.7
Cpu: Intel Core Core i7-3740QM, SR0UV, 2.70GHz/6Mb 4 core 8 thread
Ram: 16gb (2x8gb kingston ddr3l cl11)
gpu: ovviamente intel hd4000
hdd: 1 ssd sata3 corsair force le 480gb 1 hdd 5400rpm stl1000lm024 1tb
display: LP140WD1 (TL)(D2) Glossy 1600x900
wifi: Intel dual band wireless N7260
Utilizzo il pc per lavoro, sia a casa che fuori, a casa utilizzato prevalentemente con docking station pr02x
Per lavoro ho necessità di utilizzare le memorie di massa, è possibile installare un disco msata su slot wwan? esistono casi verificati di installazione dischi msata su slot wwan?
Al momento subisco molto la differenza di prestazioni fra l'ssd ed il disco meccanico, nel caso di impossibilita di poter installare disco msata, mi conviene sostiture il disco meccanico con un ssd da 480gb e configurarli in raid0? Le prestazioni in lettura e scrittura aumenterebbero notevolmente rispetto all'utilizzo del singolo disco ssd? oppure mi conviene installare un unico ssd sata3 e lasciare vuoto l'altro slot ODD magari andando a guadagnare qualcosa in termini di durata della batteria?

Given the age of the laptop, the only thing I would do is upgrade to a SSD.

I can't read Italian and most people here don't either, so you had better write in English if you want a better answer.

@nyc10036 If msata drive in wwan slot don't work, is better a raid0 of two ssd or a bigger single ssd leaving the odd free for recovery something in battery saver.
A raid0 ssd configuration it greatly increases performance?

@ejn63The chipset hm77 support raid function and in the bios is possible to configure the raid, in Raid 0 configuration, Disk clustering improves disk read and write performance and the cache is shared.
In this video an user have set raid0 on e6440 of two ssd, which does not have the raid function in the bios, he have installed a modified bios, and the performance are much increased, saturated the controlle band

why shouldn't they increase my performance by having the ability to enable the feature natively and the chipset support it?
data loss for raid0 of two ssd? is really difficult, the ssd at the end of our life (finisched writing cycles) they only work in reading mode.
I have never seen an SSD disk with bad sectors in many years or that suddenly broke and was not even more accessible.

No - testing has proven that RAID 0 isn't a performance booster. And realize that any RAID 0 setup would have to be at the operating system level - not hardware, which the system does not support.
Also realize that RAID 0 at any level doubles your chance of data loss - failure of either drive will result in total loss.

@ejn63therefore doubling the read and write speeds does not constitute an improvement in performance... not even on the desktop... ok if you are convinced, maybe you've never done and seen a raid0 on PC

What the chipset supports is not relevant -- and though there may be a RAID setting in BIOS, there will be no RAID 0 setting for a Latitude system.
It's been shown time and time again that RAID 0 using two SSDs offers little to no improvement over a single drive for a desktop or notebook system. Servers are another matter.

It may in fact double read and write speeds - but that's just part of the overall performance picture. You're convinced -- on you next desktop system, go for RAID 0. On the Latitude you initially asked about - you can't.
