Does the Dell Latitude E4300 Take an NVMe SSD?
Dell Latitude E4300
Every one of 108 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.
That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.
Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset PT IDER Controller
- Platform:
- Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Memory Controller Hub
- Drives seen:
- WDC WDS240G2G0A-, FUJITSU MHZ2080B, SAMSUNG MZ7PA128
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 500 GB (33%)
- 240 GB (33%)
- 250 GB (17%)
- 200 GB (17%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
How we know
This answer is derived from 108 independent hardware reports for the Dell Latitude E4300, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
