I'm planning to build my custom gaming rig and I wanted to know if it is okay to have a m.2 Samsung 256gb 950 pro NVM express internal ssd drive and a u.2 Intel 2.5" 400gb 750 series NVM express internal ssd drive to be running at the same time, is it okay or bad?
 
Solution
Just make sure that the board supports it, my Z170-WS only supports and/OR for the second M.2 slot. So I can either run the second M.2 or the U.2 but not both. Since the price of U.2 is so high and hard to come by I went with a second M.2 950 Pro 512 in slot 2.
