No, it does not support M.2 NVMe (or PCIe) SSD. You can use M.2 SATA SSD.
Regards.

Hi, @Sandeepks
I looked up the part number of the Kingston M.2 SSD in your screenshot and even though it looks like a SATA SSD (having two notches), it is NVMe according to the part number which is why it is not working.

Chapter 1 of your notebook's service manual indicates that only SATA SSD's are supported.
