    Hello,
    I've got a Pavilion DV6-6190sf.
    In the Maintenance and Service Guide, it's written that the Pavilion DV6 supports 32GB mSATA drive.
    But where is located the msata ports .
    Is there one or two msata ports ?
    Thanks

    Probably an error in the service manual. It happens from model to model from time to time.

    mSATA slot sort of looks like a wifi mini-PCI card slot. Nothing in the diagrams shows something like that.

    It doesn't exist on your model. It's an error in the service manual. But normally, it would be located near the harddrive. Sometimes under it.
