Does my msi z68a-g43 (g3) motherboard support an NVMe M.2 SSD?

[H_4___]

I have a msi z68a-g43 (g3) motherboard, and I'm looking at Samsung's 960 EVO ssd. The mobo doesn't have an M.2 slot, but I figured I'd buy one of those PCI-E 3.0 to M.2 adapters. Is this possible? Will my pc be able to boot from the SSD in the PCI-E slot?

I guess the question comes down to whether my mobo supports NVMe technology, and whether I can use the UEFI to select the drive as a boot drive.

I'm not finding where that board lists 'M.2 PCIe' functionality.
You may need to reach out to the mfg. to be sure, but off the top of my head I would say "no".

Storage Devices
SATA 3Gb/s4 x SATA 3Gb/s SATA 6Gb/s2 x SATA 6Gb/s SATA RAID0/1/5/10. THESE ARE THE AVAIALBLE STORAGE ON YOUR MOTHERBOARD. So no you board does not support m2. Also your board pcie slots are 2.0 not 3.0
