[SOLVED] Using NVMe M.2 SSD in SATA III M.2 SSD Port?

[babujalela]

I have a laptop with "M.2 2280 SATA3 SSD Port" It already have an SSD with Read Write speed of 550 MB/s.
I wanted to upgrade my SSD with Samsung Evo 970 Plus which have read Speed up to 3400 MB/s and it saying PCIe 3.0 X 4

Is this SSD is for me? Can I get full benifit from that SSD? Please guide me.

Most probably no since laptop's M.2 port is only SATA and would gain no speed anyway..

An M.2 NVMe SSD won't work in an M.2 SATA slot.
