Hi,

So am looking forward to purchase (link below SSD)

AMD Ryzen 3 3200G
Asrock A320M HDV R4

Is this M.2 NVMe SSD (WD Blue NVME SN550 500GB M.2 2280 PCIe Gen3) support my motherboard?



Thanks.

Given how you're on an APU, the SSD you've listed will run at PCIe 3.0 x2 speeds as opposed to PCIe 3.0 x4 speeds. I'd try and pick up a PCIe 3.0 x2 SSD and save some money, if you don't plan to upgrade the APU to a processor anytime soon.

Answer, yes it'll work, just make sure you're on the latest BIOS update for your motherboard prior to dropping the SSD in.

Thank you for your reply.
Do you have any suggestion for budget friendly M.2 SSD NVMe?
and am not planning to upgrade APU for little while.
