<strong>SATA</strong> <strong>Express</strong> Connectivity<br />

• A <strong>SATA</strong> <strong>Express</strong> (or M.2) host accepts either<br />

a <strong>SATA</strong> or <strong>PCIe</strong> storage device<br />

• A signal driven by the device tells the host<br />

whether the device is <strong>SATA</strong> or <strong>PCIe</strong><br />

• Works the same for <strong>SATA</strong> & <strong>PCIe</strong> drives on <strong>SATA</strong><br />

<strong>Express</strong> host and for M.2 <strong>SATA</strong>/<strong>PCIe</strong> cards/host<br />
