Product: Pavilion Power 15
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to use Samsung Evo 970 in my HP Pavilion Power 15 (Model: cb013tx). Does my device support NVMe SSD?

 

All I know is that it supports M.2 SSDs. All I'm seeking is that does my device support NVMe or not.

Thank You

Hello @SRSami

Yes it will support NVMe M.2 SSD's. It will also support M.2 Sata SSD's.

Note that because it supports both, it will not run an NVMe SSD at full speed, but at half because it does not have access to all the PCIe lanes in the M.2 port due to being compatible with both NVMe and Sata.

Personally, I would just use an M.2 Sata SSD and save some money. You wont notice a difference in real world average usage.
