I have a P8Z77-V Pro motherboard. Here's a link to the pdf of the manual: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1155/P8Z77-V_PRO/E7198_P8Z77-V_PRO.pdf
I couldn't find the word "m.2" anywere in the manual. I'm not very tech savy with regards to hardware so I don't know if that's even what to look for. I did see where it listed the PCIe slots on page ix, but I know PCIes are used for other things like the GPU, so I don't know if any of those are the right size.
I'm looking to get an NVME M.2 SSD because I've learned from some quick research online that they have way faster read/write speeds than SATAs. If my motherboard can't support the M.2 form factor, do you guys have other suggestions for a new SSD? I heard you could get a PCIe M.2 Adapter card, but I'm not sure exactly what I'd be looking for, could someone link to an example of one of these, and let me know what makes it compatible with my motherboard? Thanks a lot!
