So looking on the net I've been finding conflicting/confusing information. I've come to realize my motherboard does support M.2 SSD's, but I'm not sure if I will be able to use this specific model (linked below) as a SSD to boot up my OS from.

You rM2 socket supports NVME and Sata (in m2 form) drives.
When using it the regular Sata ports #'s 4 & 5 will no longer work.

Note the following in which your M2 socket will only utilize two PCIE lanes instead of the typical 4.

AMD 7th Generation A-series/Athlon Processors:
1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280/22110 storage devices support (SATA & PCIE 3.0 x2 mode)*5
