    Hi everyone,

    Wondering if the Santa Rosa based HP Business System users can provide some assistance. I've looked at the 2510P Maintenance And Service Manual and see there is no mention of turbo memory support. Google doesn't match 6910p with turbo memory either.

    Is anyone using turbo memory on the Santa Rosa based HP Business systems and if so, which mini pci-e port is is connected on? eg: does it work in the WWAN port?

    Left: 2510P mini pci-e ports as enabled by default in the bios
    Middle: UN2400 (Sierra) WWAN card appears as USB Device Manager from here
    Right: mini pci-e pinout with guestimate on the Reserved 2nd lane described here

    I ask because on there is active whitelisting on the wifi mini pci-e port and so far only the HP WWAN cards appear to be usable in the WWAN port, and it's only a USB device packaged in the mini pci-e format.

    I'm wondering is the WWAN port is a real mini pci-e port or is it simply a USB port packaged in a mini pci-e format, which is also applying whitelisting? Or have HP used the reserved 2nd lane on the wifi port?

    Which is why I'd like to know if the Turbo Memory works in the WWAN port as it's definitely a mini pci-e product. That would then indicate that port1 is an electrically connected mini pci-e port that has been whitelisted.
