We tried SATA Mini PCIe SSD FPM64GRSE purchased from Newegg for EEE PC 1000 - it turned out not to be compatible with that model (works with some other EEE PCs). This SSD has SATA connected to the PCIe connector (not a part of the standard), there is JMicron JMF601 SATA II Flash controller (also has USB port) on board.
After examining the board it was obvious what pins did they use for the SATA, and the nice thing is that the power needed is 3.3V - same as 353 camera has 'natively'. So we soldered Mini PCIe connector to the 7-pin SATA one according to the following table (power was provided directly from the camera via two extra wires):
| SATA Pin | SATA Pin Name | Mini PCIe pin | Mini PCIE Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | 35 | GND | |
| 2 | +Transmit | 33 | PETp0 | |
| 3 | -Transmit | 31 | PETn0 | |
| 4 | GND | 29, 27 | GND | |
| 5 | -Receive | 23 | PERn0 | |
| 6 | +Receive | 25 | PERp0 | |
| 7 | GND | 51,49,47 | +3.3 Power | (only 51,49 connected on the prototype) |
| - | - | 50,40,34,18,4 | GND (power) | more GND pins: 15,9 available |
