[hatrakpsi]

Can someone please tell me what m.2 ssd will work in the onboard m.2 slot on the ASROCK A88M-G/3.1 motherboard? Don't have time to order the wrong product again.

A PCIe based NVMe SSD.

Like this one: Samsung 960 EVO 256GB PCIe NVMe

SATA M.2 are not compatible.
NVMe PCI‑Express M.2 are supported. Slot does not use PCIe Gen3 speeds so Gen2 x4 (20 Gb/s) is maximum speed. Installing a PCIe Gen 3 M.2 will run at PCIe Gen 2 speeds.

*If PCIE3 is occupied, M2_1 will be disabled.
The M.2 socket does not support SATA M.2 SSDs.

Thx guys, I was mixed up about the Gen2 vs Gen3 thing. Appreciate your help.
