  • Key Specs
    • Storage Capacity: 250 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
    • 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.)
    • Maximum Read Speed: 7000 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
    • Maximum Write Speed: 5100 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
    • Form Factor: M.2 2280
    • Interface(s): PCIe Gen 4 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: Is this compatible with-- ASUS - ROG Strix B450-F Gaming (Socket AM4) USB 3.1 Gen 2 AMD Motherboard with LED Lighting? Had a very small budget for my rig and i can’t for the life of me find something compatible...or at least determine what is :{.

A: Haruto: If you're upgrading the SSD, you'll need an M.2 NVMe solid-state drive. The 980 PRO comes in a compact M.2 2280 form factor, which can be easily plugged into motherboards. If your ASUS ROG Strix comes with dual M.2 slots with PCIe 4.0 capabilities, this SSD would be a great choice. - Samsung Memory
