Key Specs
Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
Interface(s): PCIe Gen 3 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)
General
Product Name: 970 PRO 1TB Internal PCI Express 3.0 x4 (NVMe) Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology

Great agent - quite competent yet over-worked
My machine was returned with the side panel unattached. No big deal there. But the installation Win 10 on the new boot drive wrecked havoc with Adobe Lightroom. I lost LR access to 140,000 images. As a professional photog, that hurts. Adobe tells me that re-installing Win 10 can reassign HDD drive letters that LR depends on for finding photos. MS says it was avoidable. I will have to re-import all the images - and likely have to re-edit thousands of them - likely several weeks of tedious work.
