    HI all,

    I would like to upgrade the current SSD inside my Vaio SVS13A2X9 to a Samsung Evo 840 512Gb, however the current (256Gb) has a non starndard SATA connector.
    I have been searching here and seems that buying the ribbon cable with P/N: A1921021A (Sony V121 HDD FPC HIGH), a SSD with standard SATA connector can be set.

    I would appreciate if someone has replaced this part and can provide some clear information about the required cable.

    Thanks in advance!

    David

    I went in a different direction. I had the HDD version, so I just swapped that out with a 2.5" SSD. Totally painless.
