    Your device has an M.2 port for M.2 SSDs. 
    Always post the following characterisitcs of the device:
    -Model number
    -Part number(not required, but helpful)
    -CPU
    -GPU
    -Operating system

    Helios 300 and Nitro 5 users DO NOT update the BIOS to version 1.22 if you don't want the keyboard's backlight to turn off after 30 seconds even when the device is plugged in.

    Yes, it is one of the best M.2 SSDs with sata interface.

    actually i have this 2 options: 
    1- Samsung 860 EVO 250GB MZ-N6E250BW
    2- Western Digital Black Nvme 500GB WDS500G2X0C
    but the pins are different and i can't figure which is better.

    I wouldn't advice purchasing this WD drive, as it will work at half the speed on your device. M.2 drive with sata interface or x2 NVMe SSD will be sufficient for your device.
