<br />
Most ThinkPads have a WWAN slot. In older ThinkPads, the WWAN slot is a mini-PCI or mini-PCIe slot. In newer ThinkPads, the WWAN slot is a 2242 M.2 slot.<br />
<br />
On some models, the WWAN slot has PCIe lines, on others only USB is available. This page aims to clear things up and provide a central source of truth.<br />
<br />
===SSD in WWAN Slot===<br />
<br />
Some models can accept an SSD installed into the WWAN slot.<br />
<br />
<!-- Will be better if we can make a table describing the slot type and signals available, with caveats such as taping pin 20 --><br />
<br />
These models only have USB signals on the WWAN slot:<br />
* {{X60}}, {{X60s}}<br />
<br />
These models may be able to accept a mini-PCIe SSD in the WWAN slot: (need confirmation)<br />
* {{X61}}, {{X61s}}, {{X61 Tablet}}<br />
<br />
For these models, the SSD installed in the WWAN slot has to be SATA, because there are no PCIe signals on the slot. The WWAN card communicates via USB.<br />
* {{T440p}}, {{T440s}}, {{T450s}}<br />
<br />
For these models, the WWAN slot can actually accept a 2242 M.2 NVMe SSD:<br />
* {{T14}}</div>WilliamPoetra
