M.2 Ssd In Wwan Slot
WWAN card or M.2 solid-state drive,WWAN card or M.2 solid-state drive,WWAN card or M.2 solid-state drive,WWAN card or M.2 solid-state drive,WWAN card or M.2 solid. Solved: Does an NVMe M.2 PCIe 2242 SSD work in the WWAN slot? It doesn't look like the the documentation explicitly says it is supported, but I - 7500827. 1x 2280 PCIe NVMe M.2 slot: MSI CX72: 1x M.2 SSD slot: MSI CX72 (7TH GEN) 1 x M.2 SSD slot: MSI GE62 APACHE (6th Gen) 1x 2280 PCIe NVMe (M key) $3098.28: MSI GE62 APACHE (7th Gen) M.2 SSD slot: MSI GE63 RAIDER: 2x 2280 PCIe NVMe M.2 with RAID 0 support: $1479.00: MSI GE63 Raider RGB 8Rx / 8Sx: 1x M.2 SSD slot (NVMe PCIe Gen3), 1x M.2 SSD Combo. I see that it's possible to install an M.2 2242 SSD in the WWAN slot of the X240 and X270, and the HMMs for both those models describe how to do it. But is it possible to install an M.2 2242 SSD in an X250 (or X260)?

I want to install an additional M.2 SSD to my X240. As far as I know, X240 has three M.2 port:
- One single side M.2 for wireless card
- One single side M.2 42 mm for WWAN (3G card). Mine is empty in this slot.
- One double side M.2 for cache drive.
For M.2 cache drive, I dont know if my machine has it. I dont have smart card reader module either.
But I do have the single M.2 42 mm.
I want to buy a SSD: MyDigitalSSD Super Boot Drive 42mm SATA III (6G) M.2 2242 NGFF SSD (128GB (120GB)) But it is double side (B and M key).
tell me if I can install it to M.2 slot of WWAN module?

This model has room for two possible drives.
(1) 2.5' bay caddy attached with NVMe extension cable circuit board to connect a 2280 SSD. I selected this option for the inclusion of that component which would otherwise have to be ordered separately if buying a traditional hard disk first. I will backup the drive image and restore to a larger SSD model.
(2) WWAN slot for a 2242 NVMe SSD. Lenovo only offered 128GB model for that slot, so I left it blank with intention to source for another SSD later.
And regarding the above point, I'm having a tough time locating any shop that even sells a 2242 NVMe SSD. All the rage is 2280, it seems. Can't find any good offerings on Amazon or Newegg either; practically are available 2242 models are SATA-based, rather than the NVMe the slot demands.
An ideal candidate I've seen is Western Digital PC SN520 but that apparently has sold out or only available through obscure channels. The only dedicated NVMe models widely available are China brands like KingSpec and Netac. They don't have enough mainstream popularity for people to actually buy and review them; so it's a long throw to guess their performance and durability.
Anybody else operating 'niche' hardware that call for the smaller 2242, 2230 form factors?
