Samsung 850EVO 1TB SSD compatibility with GIGABYTE GA-Z170X-UD5 motherboard

[Michael_341]

I'm planning a build that has both a 1TB Samsung 850 EVO and a GA-Z170X-UD5 motherboard. I checked Gigabyte's compatibility list (http://download.gigabyte.ru/ssd/mb_ssd_support_100series.pdf) and only the 250 GB version of the EVO is listed. Will this be a problem?

Thanks!

It is compatible. They use the same connector and the firmware is so similar it could be considered to be identical if you don't look really closely.

There will be no problem using this SSD.
