Are NVMe SSDs compatible with my M.2 slot?

[NetMelc]

Hello,

I've got an ASUS Z-97C mobo and I was planning on buying a new SSD
Like this one : http://www.mydigitaldiscount.com/mydigitalssd-480gb-bpx-80mm-2280-m.2-pcie-gen3-x4-nvme-ssd-mdnvme80-bpx-0512/

On ASUS website, it says that my Mobo contains
"1 x M.2 Socket 3 for M Key, type 2260/2280 devices"

I searched on google on what was an M key M.2 SSD and found out that it supports "4x PCIe lanes or SATA"

Is 4 PCIe lanes enough to handle an NVMe SSD, and so, is my mobo's M.2 slot compatible with NVMe SSDs?

Thanks in advance,

NetMelc

You have to update the BIOS to 2404 or higher first, for it to support NVME

The latest BIOS is 2801
