Optiplex 7010 USFF PCIE Minicard slot - mSATA or NVMe?
Hello from Germany!
I got a bunch of Optiplex 7010 USFF and came across the PCIE Minicard slot.
Is mSATA only wired or can I put a NVMe SSD into the slot by using an adapter card?
Thx for your assistance!
Best regards
Peter

You can use an adapter to convert it to M.2. Just note that mini PCIe slot usually wired as x1 lane. You won't get full speed from NVMe SSD.

@Chino de Oro
I tried this.
I am attempting to install a Mini PCIe adapter to NVMe M.2 drive. Booting from the SATA HD. A29 Bios, the current one. I get the 1-3-2 Beep sequence (no memory detected) and flashing yellow light.
When I remove the card, everything is fine.

Hello, All.
Has anyone successfully installed a mSATA PCIe card drive in Optiflex 7010 USFF ? Were there any nuances/issues?
Thanks.

@Baronpilot You tried that in a 7010 USFF PC? Did you solve the issue?
