Does E6330 support mSATA?
Hi,
I'd like ask whether e6330 supprot msata ssd. I know I can add 2nd storage via e-modular bay, but I want to add 2nd storage without sacrificing my dvd drive. When I looked at the mainboard, I found that my wwan slot was empty so I am asking. Thank you in advance!

Hi Jaehyun,
The MSATA SSD can be attached to a caddy device and can be replaced in the optical drive space.
Thanks for the reply.
But I'm still wondering. what does it mean in the spec sheet?
Width: 13.19" / 335mm
Height: (front/back) 1.0"/25.4mm to 1.18"/30.1 mm
Depth: 8.80" / 223.3mm
Starting weight: 3.54lbs / 1.606kg (with 3‐cell battery, airbay, and mSATA SSD)andreroelofs

I do not agree fully with that view, it is not a mSTA but a normal SSD (SATA).
I have (just) a Dell Lattitude E6330 and bought this caddy around 10 dollar including shipping costs and it works very well with this SATA 600 SSD, so a normal SATA !
Finally I use to boot the E6330 with this SSD so changed the location of the 500 GB HD with the 240 GB SSD.So in the DVD-replacement caddy: 500 GB HD
In the HD place: the 240 GB SSDand it works great, see picture of the situation after the change, tekst in Dutch but the situation seems clear (else ask..)
Boot old situation: ~ 1.5 minute
Boot with SSD: ~ 15 seconds...
Rest of my config: 12 GB RAM.
Payed ~285 euros including the PR03X DockingStation, but without of course the caddy and SSD.I have to clean the old HD to be used for data storage. Will store an image in case the SSD collaps... and I can be on line very soon. Data are backupped any how, mostly > 2 x...
Has anyone experience with the WWAN place for using as storage place?It is free in my place, a 50 mm mSATA could.... be placed into it. Still need confirmation for this model, for e.g. the Dell E7240 the WWAN's slot will function as a mSATA.
