Don't understand either. If you have an M.2 it is in a caddy/adapter in the 2.5 inch bay but if you system has that plus an optical drive, no reason a DVD drive adapter would not work for an SSD. The ad for the device says it will work at full SATA-3 speed. I have some skepticism on that. Traditionally it has been true that if you place a SATA disk in one of these adapters, it will not be bootable and will run at a lower SATA protocol than the main drive in the hard drive bay. That is no longer universally true based on some responses here at the Forum but you might want to inquire from the seller if they believe a disk in their adapter will be bootable and capable of running Windows. If that is what you intend to do with it.
