QuestionCan I use this with MSI - B550 GAMING PLUS?
Asked 2 years ago by Larry.
- Answer yes but make sure to install it in the M.2 slot with the heat sink as this is a PCIe 4.0 drive, where as the M.2 second slot on your motherboard is only PCIe 3.0, so if you were to use that slot you'd bottle neck your new drive unneccessarily!
