Question is samsung 970 evo m.2 compatible with my MSI (Micro-Star) Notebook GT80 2QE Titan SLI

Hi there,

I want to upgrade my storage on my MSI (Micro-Star) Notebook GT80 2QE Titan SLI with the Samsung 970 evo plus 1TB m.2
I wonder if this is even compatible with the motherboard.
I didn't change any parts of the laptop, only added some ram.

if it's not compatible what ssd is recommond?

Regards,

zhontsjin

No, you need SATA M.2 drives not nvme ones.

As far as SATA m.2 drives, either that Samsung, or the Crucial MX500.

Other Options: Crucial Mx500, & Western Digital Blue 3d
Both also available in m.2 format.
