Are my new SSD (Addlink S70) and my old motherboard (Asus B150 PRO GAMING) compatible? I think so but I prefer to be sure before buying it.
THX for your time.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

Make sure you're on the latest BIOS update for your motherboard. The board will accept the SSD but keep these in mind;
*1:When PCIE x16_2 is occupied by x4 or faster devices, PCIE x1_1 and PCIE x1_2 will be disabled.
*2:When the M.2 Socket 3 is operating in SATA mode, SATA port 1 will be disabled.
