Hello, I am looking to replace the optane drive in my laptop with a large ssd. From what I can gather online it is a 2280 PCIe 3.0x4 form factor, but I cannot tell if it is mSATA or NVMe? All I really need is directed to a compatible 1TB SSD.

 

Thank you for any assistance.

Before you install a NVMe SSD, you have to first disable the Intel Optane memory in the IRST software and also in the BIOS.

 

See this link for more info on that...last two sections.
