M.2 SSD with adapter in old Sony notebook?
My mother still has an older Sony notebook (pcg-61211m). I now wanted to install an M.2 SSD in the notebook that I still had lying around, of course with an adapter. But he always tells me that he can't find a boat medium. Could it be that the motherboard is somehow so old that it doesn't work? Or does someone have an idea.
Did you try to install Windows?
Does the BIOS recognize the SSD?
That he doesn't find a boat medium
How should it even if no OS is installed?!
What do you mean by adapter?
I previously installed Windows 10 with another PC on the M.2. So he should be able to boot. But the BIOS does not find the M.2

No, it does not work out this way.
But the BIOS does not find the M.2
An OS can only be started if the m.2 is recognized by the BIOS.
An adapter from the Samsung SSD PM871 mSATA to SATA including SATA power

Yes, that's clear. I wonder why he doesn't recognize her. Is a Samsung SSD PM871
Is that an OEM especially for Dell notebooks?!
Sorry, was the wrong one.
And what adapter do you have?
Why he doesn't recognize her. Is a Samsung SSD PM871
Then it is probably not compatible.
0FCN4M from a dell E7470
But that's not an m.2 adapter?!
You are right, but it is ssd. And I would like to block it
Maybe I get you wrong, but you can't strap an m.2 onto this SSD adapter.
Here is the difference between mSATA and m.2
Sorry for the confusion.
I explain: I have a Samsung SSD PM871. This is an mSATA. I would like to install this in the old notebook with the adapter 0FCN4M. These two parts work together on other PCs and come from the dell E7470.
