(We ended up using our Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2 TB on our X1 Extreme instead. The above was just a test product recovery our daily X1C4 SSD is still the OEM Samsung PM961, as our 5-year warranty is still in force.

Strongly suggest you do data backup first, perhaps multiple copies of data backup.ģ. The two mid- tier PCIe drives that have good performance, by that I mean close to the Samsungs are the Patriot Hellfire M2 and the Toshiba/OCZ RD400, the Hellfire should hopefully be released before Christmas, biggest problem is getting a decent driver for the Patriot which is a NVMe 1.2b drive, rest are NVMe 1.

(You can also put your Samsung 970 Evo Plus SSD into external SSD enclosure, install Samsung Magician, and use its migration wizard for a seamless transfer of your OS onto your external SSD, then swap external SSD back into your X1C4, voila, SSD migrated seamlessly!). We also did successful product recovery on our X1C4 using Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2 TB. (As an aside, X1 Carbon Gen 3 cannot use NVMe SSD as it does not recognize this we could not perform product recovery on our NVMe SSD onto our X1 Carbon Gen 3).Ģ. The X1C4 accepts only "single sided" SSD.Īnyways, most modern SSD nowadays is "single sided" SSD, and uses the M-Key SSD interface (ie: NVMe with 4x PCIe lanes which is both newer and faster).įyi, Our older "double sided" ACHI SSD from our X1 Carbon Gen 3 cannot physically fit into our X1 Carbon Gen 4. We heard that this PM961 was the OEM version of the Samsung Evo Plus 960. We have the X1C4 (X1 Carbon Gen 4) 20FB-CTO1WW that came preconfigured with the Samsung PM961 PCIe NVMe "2280" SSD of 1 TB. Non-Operating 1500G, duration 0.5msec, 3 axis Operating 0☌ to 70☌ Non-Operating -40☌ to 85☌ Please click this link for further information. Microsoft have provided a hotfix and instruction to help install Windows 7 on a NVMe drive. This is due to Windows 7 not having a driver for the M.2 drive. Windows 7 Users: Please note that Windows 7 users may experience difficulties installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 directly onto a NVMe M.2 SSD. There is also a Type B key which these drives will not connect to. Please check your hardware is compatible with this type.

PLEASE NOTE: These M.2 drives are compatible with Type M keys only. The new x170 chipset from Intel is able to accommodate these faster speeds.

To enable these drives to work at full speed, the M.2 interface on your motherboard must support PCIe 3.0 and have four lanes (many only support two at this time). Please Note: While numerous motherboards support M.2 drives, they often restrict the amount of data that can be moved to and from the drive via the M.2 interface resulting in slower than expected speeds (around 50%) due to running at only PCI-e 2 speeds. The SM951 lineup consists of 512, 256 and 128 GB SSDs. The drive’s compactness is well suited for most notebook PC designs, freeing up space for other components including the battery. Also, it weighs approximately six grammes.

Samsung’s SM951 comes in the M.2 form factor (80 mm x 22 mm), which is only about one seventh the size of a 2.5” SSD. By embracing the L1.2 level of standby operation, the SM951’s power consumption is drastically reduced – to under 2mW, about a 97 percent decrease from the 50mW consumed using a L1 state. The SM951 is the first SSD to adopt the L1.2 low power standby mode (which allows all high-speed circuits to be turned off when a PC is sleeping or in hibernation) as defined by PCI-SIG (the PCIe standards body).
