The short answer is that the Samsung Evo 960 M.2 SSD cannot be used as a boot drive in the HP Zx20 series of workstations. There are plenty of threads on the forum discussing the use of M.2 cards in these systems so I would recommend you have a quick search. Just to get you started;-
HP Z620 - Liquid Cooled E5-1680v2 @4.7GHz / 64GB Hynix PC3-14900R 1866MHz / GTX1080Ti FE 11GB / Quadro P2000 5GB / Samsung 256GB PCIe M.2 256GB AHCI / Passmark 9.0 Rating = 7147 / CPU 17461 / 2D 1019 / 3D 14464 / Mem 3153 / Disk 15451 / Single Threaded 2551
