Does the Samsung Electronics R59P-R60P-R61P Take an NVMe SSD?
Samsung Electronics R59P-R60P-R61P
Every one of 53 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:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SB600 Non-Raid-5 SATA
- Platform:
- Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS600 Host Bridge
- Drives seen:
- Samsung SSD 850, FUJITSU MHY2120B, Hitachi HTS54251
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 120 GB (52%)
- 160 GB (24%)
- 320 GB (20%)
- 500 GB (4%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
How we know
This answer is derived from 53 independent hardware reports for the Samsung Electronics R59P-R60P-R61P, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
