Question I have WD SN530 M2.0 NvMe 2280 512gb SSD on my Asus g14. Can I upgrade it with WD SN570 M2.0 NvMe 2280 1TB of better write/read speed?

The SN530 is showing as having read/write speeds of 2400/1750 MB/s and the SN570 is showing as having 3500/3000 MB/s. That being said you should see an improvement.

Yes, you can upgrade.

Those 2 drives do have different read/write specifications, in favor of the 570.

You may be disappointed in the degree of improvement.

Both drives are PCIe gen 3 x 4

What motherboard?

In reality, though, all you'll see is better benchmarks. Assuming your motherboard actually has a PCIe 4.0 port.

Disregard, both are PCIe 3.0.

In daily use, you'll see NO difference.

Thanks for this, I just wanted to know if I will be facing any compatibility issues with this upgrade
