I order adata xpg sx6000 256gb pcie nvme SSD m.2 and i want to know if it is compatible with my laptop and motherboard (KBL Metapod_KL). I soon saw that there is a m.2 slot (m key). I will attach photos..

    Yes, an nvme m.2 card should work fine with a single M key socket. Speeds may be about twice as fast as a SATA3 m.2 card.

    That is the M key M.2 slot for NVMe SSD.
    Could not tell there is 4 pins or 5 pins on the narrower side of the notch from the picture.
     If it has 5-pins, you can even use faster NVMe SSD.

    Jack's picture is clear enough. It is good for x2 M.2 NVMe, not x4.
