M.2 didn't even exist back then. Please list your full system specs.

As far as I know, Z87 chipset (4000 series CPUs), were the first to have native M.2 slots onboard.

What "ddr3 motherboard gigabyte " do you have?

The Z77-DS3H has an mSATA port.

The Crucial MX200 is an mSATA drive, and will work with the Z77-DS3H.


The Z170 Gaming Pro has no mSATA port.

Unless you get an mSATA -> SATA adapter, that MX200 will never work in the Z170.

And you plug it into a regular SATA III port, not the M.2 port.
Treat it just like a regular 2.5" SATA III drive.
