Hello @Vandy2
The SX8200 Pro version has that rated speed. Is that what you meant?
Yes it will. Your laptop model will take both types of M.2 drives, Sata and NVMe.
Because of this, you wont have the full speed of 3x4 PCIe. It will only produce 3x2 speed because 2 of the PCIe lanes are shared with Sata. But it will still be much faster than Sata alone.
