Upgraded Latitude 7490 from sata m.2 to NVME m.2

By Darris
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-08-01

The Sata m.2 in the Latitude 7490 had fast disk read of 454 but I knew the NVME would be lightning speed compared to it. I bought the Gen 3 Samsung because of the price and also knowing the Latitude would only use 2 lanes. (per the internet ). I also decided to do a clean install of Windows 11 Pro. I removed the Sata m.2, put in the Samsung m.2 booted up with the Windows 11 Pro install dvd and Windows saw the Samsung immediately. After the install, I tested the drive with Crystal Disk Mark and it was 33250, I later installed the Samsung driver for the disk, downloaded from the Samsung site and it was 3499. The Drive states speeds of 3500. Totally pleased and my son which is an IT Director, is going to buy the exact same disk to upgrade his companies Dell Optiplex's. 5 Star, and super quick shipping from B&H.

So fast!

Seamless Upgrade for HP laptop

Replaced the original mechanical 1TB hard drive in our HP Pavilion laptop using the Samsung Migration software. Made an image copy of the old drive, removed the old drive and rebooted into all the content that was there before! Superfast boot, applications open in an instant. The old computer had a slot for the optane cache memory and this fit in the M2 slot with no problems. Like a new laptop for $100 bucks!

Will this drive work in acer predator triton 700 in a raid 0 configuration?
Asked by: Brian
I imagine so if that PC has 2 M.2 slots that are compatible and using both wont compromise other slots like Sata ones you may want. However these drives are so fast I cannot imagine what could be gained by that. Unless just going for some benchmark.

Asked by: josue
Techs specs says there is an M.2 expansion slot available for storage: "1x M.2 connector for storage" https://www.asus.com/us/Displays-Desktops/Tower-PCs/Everyday-use/ASUS-S300MA/techspec/ However you probably want to open the case and check that the port is actually available. It's possible that the M.2 is already used by your current NVME SSD

What's the temperature range of it? I understand it will work fine in a PC because of better cooling system. Would you suggest to use it in a laptop? Or you would suggest another model?
Asked by: River
Did you visit Samsung's web site to look for this information? I'm using one in a laptop without any problem, but then, I haven't ever left this sitting on the dashboard of a black pickup with the windows closed, parked in Phoenix at midday in July and expected it to work.
