Which M.2 SSD to put in my new CF-54??
Which M.2 SSD to put in my new CF-54??
Anyone know if this SSD will work in my CF-54A2900CM??? I don't know if this Toughbook can handle the PCIe or if it needs a SATA M.2???
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SM951-Int ... ng+951+128
SATA Option: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-850-EVO-2 ... amsung+850
The slot (Pic attached) has only a SINGLE cut out but the Panasonic part number of the OEM M.2 is the 2 slot cut out kind.
I know LEN operates thessdreview.com so I'll sign up there if no one knows but I figured I'd start here

This is a photo of the factory one.

Re: Which M.2 SSD to put in my new CF-54??
PCB of an M.2 module provides a 75-position edge connector; depending on the type of module, certain pin positions are removed to present one or more keying notches. Host-side M.2 connectors (sockets) may populate one or more mating key positions, determining the type of modules accepted by the host; as of April 2014, host-side connectors are available with only one mating key position populated (either B or M). Furthermore, M.2 sockets keyed to support SATA or two PCI Express lanes (PCIe ×2) are referred to as "socket 2 configuration" or "socket 2", while the sockets keyed for four PCI Express lanes (PCIe ×4) are referred to as "socket 3 configuration" or "socket 3".
For example, M.2 modules with two notches in B and M positions use up to two PCI Express lanes and provide broader compatibility at the same time, while the M.2 modules with only one notch in the M position use up to four PCI Express lanes; both examples also support SATA storage devices. Similar keying applies to M.2 modules that utilize provided USB 3.0 connectivity

Thanks!

The PCIe one didn't work!
Returning now and buying a MZ-N5E500BW from here instead: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TGI ... 1_1&sr=8-1
Thanks!

Can't you just get the same one Panasonic uses?
Is there any advantage to getting a different brand?

Besides the fact that Panasonic charges me like $350 for an $89 drive, the Samsung 850's are better than what Panasonic uses

Re: Which M.2 SSD to put in my new CF-54??
No I meant get the Toshiba model that Panasonic uses. Get it on the open market, not through Panasonic.
My photos show 90% of the model number. I figure it would be easy to figure it out.
this is a good guess
