Hey guys,

I have a question.

I have a Acer AIO C24-865-KUR and installed a M2 SSD card.
I recently bought a XPG S41 M2 PCIe Gen3x4 but I only achieve 1500mb/s (shows me PCIe Gen3x2).
How can I use the maximum speed from this M2?

With some speedtest softwares, I only can read at 1450mb/s.
On some specs software, shows me that my slot is running PCIe Gen3x2.

Thanks

    The Aspire C24-865 models have PCIe 2.0 x2 in their M.2 slot. The default for that is to use a SATA3 drive, but since yours is working it must also support NVMe at the x2 speeds, the same speed as the SATA. You can't get full x4 speeds from the onboard M.2 slot.
