Would Samsung PM961 256GB M.2 NVMe PCIe be compatable with HP Pavilion 15t-cc500?

[CH4LM3RS]

Hello,

I'm considering reconfiguring a Pavilion 15t-cc500 from HDD to SSD. I have a Samsung PM961. From HP specs it seems a M or M+B key is required, and PM961 is M.

Also, does anyone know if the HDD could remain installed as a backup?

Have an OEM: Samsung MZVLW256HEHP PM961 256GB M.2 NVMe PCIe

Looking to install into: Pavilion 15t-cc500

Thanks for your consideration,

C

Hi,

It is not possible as the M2 slot in the PC only supports M2 SATA3 SSD such as the M2 Samsung 860 Evo or similar, not PCIe SSD such as the PM961
