    I have an Asus X43S with an K43SV motherboard

    I can't find any more specific information about this board. I want to know if it have an mSATA port and if it is sata2 or sata3.

    I'm thinking about popping an SSD into it.If it supports mSATA I will pop in a PLEXTOR PX-128M5M. If not, I will consider replacing the DVD drive with an SSD and caddy. I haven't had much luck with Google.

    Is there anything I should know about the caddy?

    As far as I know, the Kxxxx series does not have a mSATA slot.
