HP Pavilion Desktop - 570-p055na

I want to upgrade the 256g hard drive (c drive) which I believe is an M.2.

Will the following be compatible? 

Crucial P3 Plus 2TB M.2 PCIe Gen4 NVMe Internal SSD - Up to 5000MB/s - CT2000P3PSSD8

If not, what will be a good upgrade and whats the best drive cloning software to use?

 

HP Pavillion Desktop PC570-po55na

Many thanks

If you visit the Crucial website https://www.crucial.com/, click on the "Upgrade my computer" in the upper right corner of the website.  Then click on the Cruical Scanner.  If you buy from them, what they offer, it will work.  They also provide Acronis True Image for cloning from the support site.

Of course you are free to not buy from them but use the recommended items from another vendor.

It will tell you if the item you posted will in fact work with the PC, however.  The speed of Up to 5000MB/s may not be appropriate for your situation, however.  Some hardware does not preform at the highest speed with the motherboard and drivers in place on your PC.

Thanks for the info, I will see what it throws up.

I just chose that particular ssd as it was on a deal from amazon and seemed like a good price for what it is in comparison.

Thanks again

Glad to help.  Crucial used to have a statement on the site that said if you bought from them on their site, they would guarantee it would work.  It was not as prevalent on the site when i looked at the process this time, however.
