Does the ASUSTek Computer X751LJ Take an NVMe SSD?

ASUSTek Computer X751LJ

No NVMe drive was ever observed in 40 reports — this model almost certainly uses SATA storage (2.5-inch or SATA M.2).

Every field report for this laptop showed a SATA drive rather than NVMe, so an NVMe M.2 stick most likely will not work here. A 2.5-inch SATA SSD is the safe upgrade. We deliberately do not link NVMe drives on this result — a drive that cannot fit is worse than no recommendation.

Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.

How we know

This answer is derived from 40 independent hardware reports for the ASUSTek Computer X751LJ, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
