I just drooled (and not from my mouth), look at the speeds.

don't get too excited. I have the SM951 which quotes up to 2000MB/s but has achieved nothing over 700MB/s in Win 7/10 Pro x64

Hi OP and other forum users,
Quick question, I am not familiar with M2 SSDs, if I get this, will I be able to upgrade my HP 250 G4, which came with an i5-6200U Processor and a 128GB (SAMSUNG MZNLF128HCHP-000H1) SSD?
I have been looking for more details of the innards of the HP 250 G4, but can't seem to find much information online.
why does the novatech quote lower read/write speeds, are they def the same product?

Hi drasim,
I have come across it before, but I assumed, as it was for the older generation HP 250 G4 (5th Generation Intel Core processors), the current service manual would be different, as mine is the 6th Generation! Also I am confused as the 128GB SSD installed in it is a M2 SSD! So are you helpfully trying to point out that there is a spare slot, for a SATA drive as well, in my HP 250 G4?
Many thanks for your assistance :smiley:

HP associate the 6th gen model number with that service manual, but if you say otherwise, that's a bit lax from HP!

You'll need to look for a SATA drive
