Hi.
I have Acer Aspire A315-42-R04R with m.2 slot ("M" key).
In the Acer Support answered that it has PCIe 3.0 x2 interfaces. I bought PLEXTOR M8SeGN PX-128M8SeGN (PCIe x4, supposed it would work as x2), and my laptop freezes on the Acer logo with it (w/o SSD it works as normal).
For now I don't understand: troubles with my laptop or new SSD and which SSD should I buy.
Does laptop m.2 slot support PCIe x4 interface, only PCIe x2 or it just have SATA interface?

Thanks.
