    I was wodnering if it was a flipped M key but then i noticed the key has a B on it :D! You cant go off the pins as some pins are not inluded to save resources :)

    That NVME drive will work in laptops ok its 1 2280 drive which is a standard length

    Should do, one slot is sata only, the other is Sata or NVME.

    But the bottom drive looks to be sitting in the NVMe slot, the top one is a B key which is usually for a Sata drive only or a 2 lane NVME (i dont think ive ever actually seen a B key NVME drive though)

    I would try placing your current drive in the top slot first to see if it reads it, and if it doesnt, go with a Sata M2 instead

    thank you very much
    actually I find a photo on the internet that says maybe its a M key slot(5 pin)
    and excuse me I have one more question, one of my relatives is bringing a Samsung evo 970 plus NVMe 512GB SSD from travel, I wanted to ask does it fit into the laptop or it's desktop only? (as I see a table about different length of this SSDs)
    Thank you very much again :)
