A515-43-R19L M.2 SLOT is it SATA or NVME?

I own two A515-43-R19L laptops. First one I bought has a M.2 SATA slot. 2nd one I purchased has a NVME slot because I upgraded to a bigger NVME drive. Not sure if others are aware that there are different two types of ssd's for this model laptop. Is the M.2 SATA slot compatible to install a NVME ssd?

I don't wanna force NVME drive into the slot if it's not compatible in the M.2 SATA slot. I'd appreciate a confirmation.

I used the Crucial scanner to see what type of ssd it would be compatible with and it only shows NVME drives, no M.2 SATA drives.

A friend of mine bought a newer Acer A515-55 laptop and description also says NVME ssd but when I opened it up to upgrade the ssd is M.2 SATA. The image I included is the difference between NVME & M.2 SATA.

Thank you in advance. I appreciate it.

Hi,
Could you please start a new thread posting the details of your laptop, like model name(AN5xx-xx), this thread is very old and others may not see your post.
In the meantime, go to Device manager and uninstall current Audio driver, reboot and let Windows install the driver.
