Would like to know if i can replace this SSD with an M.2 , does this laptop motherboard have an M.2 slot for .
Ideally would like to replace with M.2 PCIe NVMe , not sure if this board supports those.
Also can i replace the Atheros Qualcomm wireless card with Killer 1525 . ?

I think you are a little confused.
That SSD is an M.2 Sata protocol SSD from Samsung that you can read about herehttp://www.samsung.com/semiconductor/products/flash-storage/client-ssd/MZNLF128HCHP
And yes this can be replaced with another larger M.2 SSD either NVMe/PCIe or SATA protocol. Although speeds are currently restricted for NVMe based on current BIOS0

Thanks Crusin . That clarifies a lot things. I did try to find details on the SSD prior but did not the link that you posted, so thanks again .
If nvme speeds are restricted in bios , would you know if acer upgrades their bios settings ever. Have they done bios upgrades in prior models before?

Read this thread. Acer_Cory says a BIOS change is underway but that's not a guarantee that it actually gets released.0 -
Hi,

Works the Killer Card in your 592g?

Hi,
I have a killer 1525 in my 591G and I am expecting that you will have the same type of port as my model. So It should work fine.
