I recently bought a Dell Latitude E6330, and I've noticed on the Dell support page that there is a firmware update for an mSATA SSD. There is no mSATA port on the laptop's motherboard, however there IS an empty half-height mini PCIe slot, with nothing mentioned either on the driver page or in the manual about anything being installed there. I've done some research, and there are mini PCIe SSDs (using a mini PCIe-mSATA bridge chip on the module) available. I've found a single mini PCIe SSD on eBay (the listing specifies that it was taken from a Latitude E6330), so I'm wondering if I could find any mini PCIe SSD and use it in my system. I can't seem to find any concrete information via Google.
