NVMe storage was observed in reports for this laptop.
- Reports
- 7
- Saw NVMe
- 100%
- Fastest link observed
- PCIe Gen3 ×4
The fastest link we saw in real machines was PCIe Gen3 ×4. That is a floorobserved in field reports, not the slot’s ceiling — a faster drive still works because PCIe is backward compatible; it simply runs at the slot’s speed.
Field reports can’t tell us the physical connector, how many slots are empty, or which M.2 length fits. Check the service manual and the installed drive before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] FCH SATA Controller [AHCI mode]
- Platform:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Raven/Raven2 Root Complex
- Drives seen:
- Micron 2200S NVMe SSD [Cassandra], Sandisk WD Blue SN500 / PC SN520 x2 M.2 2280 NVMe SSD, TOSHIBA MQ04ABF1
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 1 TB (100%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
