Hi there,

Looking to upgrade my friend's Samsung NP900X4C hard drive. It comes with a 128GB mSata SSD Drive.

Approx. 250GB will do them, I was looking at the Kingston UV500 SUV500MS/240G. I'm not too familiar with mSata Drives, anyone know if the Kingston one will work, or where I can find out if it will? And if it doesn't work, can anyone recommend a different drive for me?

Thanks...

mSATA is just another form factor for SSD drives - should be fine.

The 480Gb is cheaper/Gb if longevity is a factor.

Great, thanks for the replies, good to know they'll work. I given them the option of the 240GB or 480GB, and will see which they want to spend their money on.
