*250 Hours* Samsung PM953 MZ1LV480HCHP-000MU 480GB M.2 SSD 2.5" PCIe Gen3 x4 These drives have an M.2 with an NVME connection over a PCI-e 3.0 Host Interface. What this means is that these are M.2 and do NOT plug into a PCI-e slot. The connection looks similar to a Mini PCI-e connection, however these are NOT mini PCI-e. The connection type of these NVME drives is M.2. Basically these drives communicate over 4x PCI-e 3.0 lanes, but using a special interface, not a PCI-e slot (though there are adapters available online). This is why the drives are able to read and write significantly faster than current gen SATA/SAS technology. Please make sure you have the proper NVME connections available on your system as we will need to charge a 15% restocking fee on a Return. If you have any questions or need any further clarifications, please don’t hesitate to ask!
