What would be good SSD to add to my PC for installing Windows 10 on?

Tags: Hardware, Operating systems, Windows

Hello there.

So I have this motherboard H110M-K. I already have Windows 10 installed on my main drive it but I only have 60 GB of storage capacity on it, so I’m looking to upgrade. It’s a SATA SSD drive. I would like buy a new SSD drive (this time a PCIe drive), and I’m thinking something like Samsung SSD 980 https://semiconductor.samsung.com/consumer-storage/internal-ssd/980/

This is not set in stone, and I’m open to other PCIe options. So my first question would be: Would this specific drive work with my motherboard as my boot drive, i.e., where I can install Windows on? Specifically, I’m a little wary of the NVMe technology. Will it work with my motherboard?

Thank you in advance for you insight into this.

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/H110M-K/E10950_H110M-K_UM_WEB_only.pdf?model=H110M-K only shows SATA ports so you should shop for SATA SSD drives which are plentiful.
