The SATADIMM from Viking Technology uses an empty DDR3 DIMM slot on the motherboard to provide power to the SSD with a separate SATA connector to provide the data connection back to the computer. The result is an easy-to-install SSD with a capacity equal to drives that typically take a full 2.5-inch drive bay. [104]
SSDs with U.2 interface. U.2 (pronounced 'u-dot-2' [1]), using the port SFF-8639, is a computer interface standard for connecting solid-state drives (SSDs) to a computer. It covers the physical connector, electrical characteristics, and communication protocols.
Upgrade to an SSD: Replace your traditional hard drive with a solid-state drive (SSD) for faster boot times, quicker application launches and overall snappier performance.
The drive is based on Crucial's P1 internal SSD, but with modifications to its firmware to optimize it for external storage rather than for an operating system installation. The internal SSD is connected to the external USB-C interface via an ASMedia 2362 bridge chip. Power for the drive is supplied via the USB connection, requiring the USB ...

M.2, pronounced m dot two [1] and formerly known as the Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF), is a specification for internally mounted computer expansion cards and associated connectors. M.2 replaces the Mini SATA ( mSATA ) standard and the Mini PCIe ( mPCIe ) standard (which is how it got the short name of M dot 2 from being Mini SATA 2).
A current, widely used standard for the "buffer-to-computer" interface is 3.0 Gbit/s SATA, which can send about 300 megabyte/s (10-bit encoding) from the buffer to the computer, and thus is still comfortably ahead of today's [as of?] disk-to-buffer transfer rates. Data transfer rate (read/write) can be measured by writing a large file to disk ...
A drive bay is a standard-sized area for adding hardware to a computer. Most drive bays are fixed to the inside of a case, but some can be removed. Over the years since the introduction of the IBM PC, it and its compatibles have had many form factors of drive bays. Four form factors are in common use today, the 5.25-inch, 3.5-inch, 2.5-inch or ...
