Review on πŸ’Ύ LEVEN mSATA SSD 1TB 3D NAND TLC SATA III 6 Gb/s - High-Performance Internal Solid State Drive for Desktop PC Laptop - Compact Size (30x50.9mm) - Reliable and Fast (JMS600-1TB) by Nicholas Erickson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Asus A320M-K with A10-9700 APU cannot read NVME in M.2 slot.

I was trying to install an M.2 NVME drive on my Asus A320M-K with the A10-9700 APU installed. No fun! After much research I found out that the chipset of the board only supports M.2 "SATA" drives with this MoBo/CPU configuration. So I bought this CD and Instant Joy worked great. The only benefit it has over a SATA SSD is less assembly clutter since both feature SATA III. This also frees up all 4 SATA ports on the board to install spinning rusty drives to populate a Plex Media Server in Raid 5 I hope.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • There are shortcomings
