I have a Dell e7450 i7, the one with the msata port only, not the 2.5 sata port which is the i5 version of E7450. I tried to install a ssd in the WWAN port of that E7450, as I did in a 5580 (in that case both sata and pcie worked 2242 B+M key!). NONE of the ssds I have (sata or pcie b+m key 2242) worked in the WWAN port of the E7450 (Bios and Windows). I wonder if it's something locked in the Bios because nothing is visible in the Bios. The Bios suggests that only another sata ssd would be accepted if it's a ssd connected to a dell docking station ("esata dock port"), zero mention in the bios of a pcie M2 possible option, or another sata port. In that case, maybe in modding the bios those options (m2 pcie or another sata) would become available and would work in the WWAN port. The only thing is those Dell laptops Bioses seem to be almost impossible to mod so deeply (just with SLIC I think). Thank you for your suggestions.

Re: e7450 la-a963p motherboard add bios option
thank you, but this is for the E7450 i5, which has a different motherboard. Mine is the e7450 i7. as I explained, I tried both pcie and sata ssds nvme b+m key 2242, and it failed for both of them in the i7 version. That's why I'm looking for modding the bios.Comment
