Hi..  Soeren Zorn

 

Sorry but you need to pay more attention to the connector gender

 

That device turns a mSATA device in to a SATA device.

 

It has a female socket for the mSATA and a male plug for the SATA cables..

 

 

Hi nb…

I have yet to find what you need a   “SATA to mSATA adapter”.

Your  “KINGSTON SSDNOW 300 120GB” is a plug and play replacement for a SATA drive.

Hi,

 

that won't work: not only to the connectors differ, the PCBs have completely different sizes and setup.

You could try to get a SATA -> mSATA converter like this one:

Betreff: [MinnowBoard] Can I extract a mSATA disk from 2.5" box ?

Hi all,

I’ve received today may Silverjaw mSATA + mPCIe.
I’ve connected it to the MinnowBoard Max.
Now I want to connect my SSD. It’s a KINGSTON SSDNOW 300 120GB.

Is there a way to open it for getting out a mSATA board, or do I have to buy a new disk ?

Thanks in advance

Regards

nb
