Tips and tricks
To foresee any possible issues, google for Silicon Motion controller SM2246EN in context of your motherboard, chipset etc.
At buyers request,
- for improved compatibility, the SSD can be Low level formatted with LLFTool.
- for improved Win performance and extended life, the SSD can be NTFS partitioned with 512K alignment.
< If you partitioned the SSD on Mac, it would take care of proper alignment automatically.
Make sure to enable Trim.

Q & A
Q Is this card mSATA or miniPCI? My notebook have ONLY a mSATA interface.
A There is no miniPCI card. All mSata cards are PHYSICALLY miniPCI and mSata ELECTRONICALLY.
Before you open a case
1) You do not have to open a case to get a replacement or refund. You freeze money in my PayPal account, you damage my eBay rating which costs me more money in fees. 2) You can always open a case if things do not work out as you expected. 3) You can't open a case after 60 days of purchase but I still provide a year warranty. 4) Most importantly, if you do open a case, you loose control because I am bound to take action. Because if you closed the case, you won't be able to open it again later. So for example if I advised you to wait few days and monitor any changes, we can't do that anymore.
How to get full or partial refund or replacement
1) For full refund you ask me for refund, I email you a return label, you send item back, I receive it or you show me a postage proof, I cancel the transaction, eBay refunds you automatically. If you don't have a printer, I PayPal you £1 or £2 depending on value of item and postage cost and you write the address by hand and buy a stamp. 2) Partial refund. No case needed either. If you bought e.g. a 128Gb SD card which does not work in your camera because it's too big and you want a 32Gb instead, you send me the 128Gb, I cancel the order, you get instant refund and then you buy a 32Gb. The price difference is your partial refund. 3) How to get replacement. You ask for replacement, post the original back, once I see it back or a proof of postage, I send you a new one. In any case contact me before to decide who pays postage and how we communicate. It may happen that it is not entirely my fault and then you have to spend that extra £1 for postage. In any case if anything goes wrong, you can always open a case. eBay will spill my guts out for you.
INR
If you don't get the SSD on the next day or day after or even next week. No need to PANIC. I've seen parcel stuck in Heathrow for 2 weeks. 50% of buyers who claimed INR had got the first one WHILE the second one was on the way or just right after. No need to open a case either. Again, if you opened an INR case, got the SSD it stopped working on next day after you close the case, you can't open another one (correct me if I'm wrong). Regardless of if you can or can't open the case I WILL MAKE SURE you got the SSD and it works properly, give you your money back like in case of Foxconn barebones or send a replacement.
