serialhobbyist,

Are you able to boot from the Msata SSD drive?

Thanks,

prpixel - I've updated my original posts rather than veer further off topic on this thread but in a word, yes.

I cannot use mSATA as a boot device and it is not recognized by BIOS.
Is there any settings for BIOS or any condition needed?
mSATA3 is inserted to miniPCI fullsize slot. And win7 and XP also cannot recognize it.

mSATA is not officially supported yet. We are working toward to enable this feature.

Thanks. I hope you will succeed it by BIOS improvement. Or hardware change needed?

Please let us know when mSATA devices are supported.

One of the reasons why I am holding back, is that I want to use
the mSATA device as my boot device. Then use the 2.5" disk
slot for a slower, but high capacity disk.

The latest BIOS update with the FitPC3 board revision 2.3 supports mSATA

so the new BIOS version and the board revision 2.3 doesn't require the pin 43 to be grounded?

Yes, that is correct. You can choose from BIOS the desired feature
