would like to know if below will be compatible or any other recommendations?

Hi:

 

I would go with the regular Samsung 980 because the 980 Pro costs more and since your notebook's M.2 slot is PCIe Gen 3, you will not get any benefit in the faster advertised sequential read/write speeds the 980 Pro Gen 4 SSD provides.


In other words, it will run no faster than the Samsung 980.

 

Another alternative would be the Western Digital Blue SN570.
