Hi,
I am planning to install a Samsung Evo 980 500GB M2 NVME SSD on my laptop. I'm wonder if it is compatible. If it is, what is the maximum speed, given the advertised speed is 3000MB/s for PCIe 4 lanes, and this laptop has only 2 PCIe lanes.
I have read some threads on this forum, some states that it supports both M2 NVME and M2 SATA 3, some states that M2 NVME is supported but backward compatible with SATA 3 speed, and there might be compatibility problems. Is it recommended to buy a M2 NVME or M2 SATA 3 SSD?
Thank you.

Hi
You won't any difference between NVMe and SATA drives under normal usage, if you transfer large files often, you may benefit by installing a M.2 NVMe SSD, so I would suggest you get a M.2 SATA SSD but if the price difference is not too big get a M.2 NVMe SSD.

Thank you for your reply. That means if I install Samsung 980 NVME SSD, it will cap at the speed of SATA 3, but it does compatible right?0 -
