Does this laptop have an mSATA slot, where I can plug in my own mSATA disk?

I do not think that it does internally I swaped out the drive that came with Laptop with check link(http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-7TE750BW/dp/B00E3W1ALE/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1386189261&sr;=1-4&keywords;=samsung+840+evo+mz-7te750bw+2.5+inch+750gb+sata) in addition you can take out the optical drive and use a caddy for a second HD see link (http://hddcaddy.com/en/asus-hdd-caddy/415-asus-n550-n550jv-hdd-caddy.html)

There is no mSATA slot, just a regular SATA III connection. There isnt a way we know of to hook up your mSATA drive. We've tried mSATA to SATA adapters but the N550 wont recognize it.

Onboard graphics shares memory with RAM. I suppose you could get by with an external HDD (or even a flash drive), but it won't nearly be as fast as mSATA. Consider booting from USB when installing the OS, and imagine doing it everyday.

If it truely is a mSata SSD disk then yes it very well should work, any and most mSata disk cards work with this adapter. Some have different shapes and sizes but according to your specs and looking at a similar laptop this will fit very well with the adapter. Let me know if you have further questions.

As long as it has a slot for it, it should work. I have an Acer Aspire V3 772G and had to change settings in the BIOS to make my mSata bootable as the os drive.

You might not even need to use the disk. If your laptop has a 15 pin svga socket, which most laptops do, then you can just plug it in and it will work. There may be some features of the s/w on the disk that you can't use until its installed, but you can probably download everything that's on the disk from the internet.

YES, if the system has a free mSata port (like shown in the 6th picture), you could add an mSata Solid State HD and have (2) drives internally. The mSata port is commonly used for the internal wireless/bluetooth card, but in this photo the card is missing, making room for a msata Solid State HD. One could add a 3rd internal HD, as specified in the User Guide, using a combination of the VESA mounting bracket(http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-System-Mounting-Bracket-0B47374/dp/B009ZN8U14), the optical drive box (http://www.amazon.com/Lenovo-Thinkcentre-Tiny-Storage-0b47375/dp/B009XAHDOE), and the replacement HD enclosure (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0151K9J9Q).

It is not according to crucials website. The msata/PCI express slot is prepopulated with the WiFi card.

Does it use mSATA? Don't confuse this with mini SATA. This is for the mSATA cards that look like a small laptop wifi card

There are no mSATA slots and two hard drive bays one of which is empty. The 889 comes with 3 mSATA slots and one hard drive bay.

It is a non-standard flash memory, not a standard mSATA. It can be accessed though.

you can't use a mSata SSD because there is no slot available. You can replace the stock Seagate SSHD 1TB + 8GB (HDD and SSD on the same 2.5" drive) by another 2.5" drive or you can add a caddy for a second 2.5" drive but it will replace the graphics card in the ultrabay. sorry for my english i'm from France i hope there are no mistakes !

This is an mSATA drive. The Drobo5N specs state an mSATA solid state drive is compatible.

Not sure which Toshiba Satellite you own. It's mSATA so it will require an mSATA to SATA or mSATA to IDE carrier (~$35) to mount in a HDD bay. If your laptop is something very new then perhaps it has an mSATA slot. My experience is with regular Satellite laptops using IDE and SATA drive bays. Then - if you plan to use it as your boot drive then you can either install from original media or use a disk clone software package like ezGig or Reflect.

I dont think so, its not an msata interface, its a mini pcie instead. You can find more info on manufacturer's site.

you should buy msata ssd, there's no sata slot inside. but l removed the CD driver to put my sata ssd inside. hope it will be helpful. :)

Yes it does, however it is barebones so you would to purchase low voltage sdram and msata hard drive.

No there is not. I'm not an expert in hardware but I believe noticed that there is a slot for cache memory but it is empty. It fits the msata mini half-size ssd by the looks of it.
