    So I'm owning a 2010 Sony Vaio VPCZ11Z9E (PCG31111M) whose Samsung SSD recently failed.

    Wanting to further use it and thus replace the SSD I'm facing the following challenges I detailed here.

    If anyone of you has an idea how to correctly identify a suitable aftermarket LIF to mSATA-adapter (ideally with an included LIF cable), I would greatly appreciate that!

    [ Some examples of adapters that I found on my local amazon. ]

    Thanks in advance.
