MSI Notebook Storage Device Compatibility Guide

Storage Device Information

  1. MSI suggests consulting a local service center for a storage device's approval list before upgrading to avoid compatibility issues.
  2. For maximum SSD performance, refer to the suggested Stripe Size in the RAID 0 column for setup.

  3. Storage Device Types: 2.5 inch vs. mSATA vs. M.2 SSD

    Visual representation of three common SSD form factors:

    • 2.5" SATA: A rectangular drive, typically 2.5 inches in width, with a SATA data and power connector.
    • mSATA: A smaller, rectangular circuit board with a mini-SATA connector, often used in compact devices.
    • M.2 Type 2280: A long, narrow circuit board (22mm wide, 80mm long) with an M.2 connector, designed for high-speed data transfer.

    RAID 0 Configuration Example:

    • RAID 0 supports up to 4 x M.2 SSDs with a suggested stripe size of 128KB for optimal performance.

Which M.2 SSD Drive do I need?

  1. Connector & Socket:

    Ensure the correct combination of SSD connector and notebook socket. There are three types of M.2 SSD edge connectors: B Key, M Key, and B+M Key.

    • B key edge connector: Used on Socket for 'B' Key (aka. Socket 2), typically for SATA interfaces. (Visual: 6 contacts wide, 6 pins wide, contacts at pins 1, 11, 21, 75)
    • M key edge connector: Used on Socket for 'M' Key (aka. Socket 3), typically for PCIe x4 interfaces. (Visual: 5 contacts wide, 5 pins wide, contacts at pins 1, 57, 67, 75)
    • B+M Key edge connector: Can be used on both B and M sockets. (Visual: Contacts at pins 1, 11, 21, 57, 67, 75)

    * To determine the supported connector and socket for a specific notebook, refer to the ‘M.2 slot(s)' column in the notebook's specifications.

  2. Physical size:

    M.2 SSDs are available in various physical sizes, such as 2242 (22mm wide, 42mm long), 2260 (22mm wide, 60mm long), and 2280 (22mm wide, 80mm long). MSI Notebooks primarily support Type 2280.

  3. Logical interface:

    M.2 drives can connect via either the SATA controller or the PCI-E bus in x2 or x4 mode.
