Does the Fujitsu Siemens LIFEBOOK S6410 Take an NVMe SSD?

Fujitsu Siemens LIFEBOOK S6410

Every one of 12 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 82801HM/HEM (ICH8M/ICH8M-E) SATA Controller [AHCI mode]
Platform:
Intel Corporation Mobile PM965/GM965/GL960 Memory Controller Hub
Drives seen:
CT120BX500SSD1, ST9160821AS, ST9250410AS

Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.

Capacities seen

  • 250 GB (50%)
  • 160 GB (50%)

Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.

How we know

This answer is derived from 12 independent hardware reports for the Fujitsu Siemens LIFEBOOK S6410, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
