How do I verify SSD compatibility?
Verify your full model number against the device page, then confirm the physical form factor (M.2 2280), interface (NVMe PCIe 5.0), and M.2 keying if applicable. Compare against your existing drive or manufacturer specs before purchase.
Can I use NVMe if my device originally had SATA?
