Even mSATA might require some soldering, if the device is "non-compliant" http://www.element14.com/community/community/designcenter/single-board-computers/gizmo2/blog/2015/01/30/gizmo2-installing-ssd-and…

I'm not really worried about the low powered consumption. the thing that really interest me is the Linux and Window on the Gizmo. However I've so far liked the Rasberry Pi and have yet to try out the Gizmo.

As I understand, the Gizmo supports Windows CE which is not a full Windows.

Hi Greg,

Gizmo does have SATA capability with a bit of soldering, however since it has mSATA capability built-in, mSATA can be used for local storage
(i.e. no need to use SATA connector unless you really need it).
