Hello,
I did read this:
You can't convert SATA to PCI-E. Primarily because SATA ports have a controller that is on the PCI-E bus, and can't bypass it. If there is a wireless network card in the laptop you can use that PCI-E mini slot, but there is absolutely no way to use a SATA port.
That said, the adapter you've bought costs 8€... I guess it can't hurt to try
Let me know how you get on!
