We’ve all seen the SSD upgrades for various netbooks from various companies, such as Active Media and RunCore. The companies specify which netbooks the SSDs will work on as currently, different netbooks have different connectors. At the Intel Developer Forum in San Franciso, the SATA International Organization have announced the release of a standard connector named mini-SATA, or mSATA which uses the Mini PCI Express connector. This will only be applied to SSDs up to 64GB, while higher capacity SSDs will still be designed in either 1.8 or 2.5 inch formats.

Hp, Lenovo, Dell, Samsung and STEC are behind the change. Toshiba are also backing the change and have already announced two mSATA SSDs in 30GB or 62GB models.
