Crucial M.2 SSD (CT250MX200SSD4) brand with Maximus VII Impact (MUST READ!)

RhysLewis
Level 7
I have found Crucial have incorrectly stated SATA M.2 type of drives work on this board on the below link

I suspect the link --> http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/ASUS/maximus-vii-impact is showing the wrong M.2 drives , it should list CT250MX200SSD3 & CT500MX200SSD3 instead of the CT250MX200SSD4 &CT500MX200SSD4 ??

I have just spoken with ASUS and they advise it is not compatbile
Firstly, the specification of M.2 for MAXIMUS VII IMPACT is below:

1. Support PCIe interface only;
2. Support 2242/2260/2280/22110 SSD card up to 110mm in length;
3. 1x M.2 (NGFF) Socket 3 with M key.

Given the above information, I am afraid that Crucial (CT250MX200SSD4 ) is not compatible with the mPCIe Combo IV due to it supports SATA interface.

For more details, please refer to page 10,19 and 76 in the user's manual.

So long story short , Crucial are going to correct their website for compatibility . i.e TO SHOW CT250MX200SSD3 & CT500MX200SSD3 instead of the CT250MX200SSD4 &CT500MX200SSD4
