Fitlet2 SSD Option

Hi all,

The information out there is a bit sketchy, but my understanding is that it will be possoble to install a SSD in the Fitlet2 with a FACET card.

I have a Fitlet2 on order (E3950 processor, 256 Gb M.2 Sata), but a second disk could come in handy.

Can somebody confirm, and also availability of the FACET card?

Also, I think to have read somewhere that the FACET SSD option would require a taller custom housing, which would kill this option for me.

Thanks,

Robert

Let's start to sort things out...

- fitlet2 does not support multiple disks.
- Some FACETs allow installing M.2 2280 instead of M.2 2260 / 2242 that are supported without a FACET.
- No need for taller housing for M.2 SSD. Taller housing is required for 2.5" (currently under development).

Could you tell us which FACETs will allow for M.2 2280?

I found it in the Q&A. (https://fit-iot.com/web/products/fitlet2/fitlet2-qa/)

* Vanilla fitlet2 can take M.2 M-key 2260 / 2242 SATA SSDs.
* Some FACETs (like FC-LAN, FC-USB) do not interfere with the SSD.
* Some FACETs (like FC-CEL, FC-PCIe) allow installing M.2 M-key 2280 SATA SSDs.
