Do Thinvent Mini PCs Have SATA Ports?
The Thinvent mini PC range does not include SATA ports. Every Thinvent mini PC in this range uses SSD storage, either as a 256GB or 512GB SSD in the Aero and Treo models, or as 32GB eMMC storage in the Micro 6 Pro. Buyers who need extra drive bays should check the storage options below before ordering.
Storage in the Thinvent Mini PC Range
Thinvent mini PCs store data on solid-state drives. An SSD connects through an M.2 slot, which is the standard expansion path for these compact systems. The Aero and Treo models ship with 128GB to 512GB of SSD storage. The Micro 6 Pro uses 32GB of eMMC storage, which is soldered to the board and suits embedded Linux deployments.
