Hi Guys,

I need a hand with the various keys on this m.2 SSD. Photo:

So this is a m.2 SSD 2242 and I need a 42mm size to fit in my girlfriends 2 in 1 laptop. The problem I have is the above doesn't appear to fit into the slot which is present on the device:

You can see the M key on the above photo but the only 2242 device I can includes the M+B key.

The question is, can I can a M+B key to fit into the slot on the photo above?

Hopefully I have explained this well enough!

Can't see too well, but that looks like it might be an mSATA slot on the laptop, not m.2. mSATA and m.2 are not interchangeable.

Turns out it worked fine which is great. Thanks for the help regardless!
