[SOLVED] Do NVMe SSDs run on B150 motherboard?

[ziad ahmed]

i ask if crucial p2 nvme ssd can run on gigabyte B150-HD3 motherboard ?
the manual shows that the mobo can run PCIe x4 ssd , BUT!! it doesn't mention it can run ssd with NVMe protocol .
so iam not 100% sure if the mobo can handle the SSD .

Yes.

"1 x M.2 Socket 3 connector (Socket 3, M key, type 2242/2260/2280 SATA & PCIe x4/x2/x1 SSD support) "


For an SSD, PCIe == NVMe.
It will work.

On Gigabytes Specifications sheet:

Chipset:

1. 1 x M.2 Socket 3 connector (Socket 3, M key, type 2242/2260/2280 SATA & PCIe x4/x2/x1 SSD support)

PCIe x4/x2/x1 is same as NVME.
