Product: Elitebook 8470p
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just purchased an Elitebook 8470p with an Intel i5 processor. I took a look underneath at the hardware componants and noticed that stacked just above the plug-in Wi-Fi module is an mSATA-size slot and 2 mounting screw holes.

I placed a non-mSATA (mSATA size and configuration) card - an older Intel Turbo Memory card - into the slot for a test.  Boot up saw the card, but interpreted it for an "unknown WWLAN card" and disregarded it.

Is this indeed a working slot for an mSATA SSD card, or something else?

It would be great if it is.  Thanks
