as I have already indicated, both. But the Gen 4 is slowed down because your PCie is Gen 3 but since Gen 4 is supported but at lower speed by Gen 3 PCie, you can use both.

- if I can help solve your question or issue, please click on ACCEPT AS SOLUTION or click the YES button if my answer was helpful.

Hi @sataPCI 

 

You can use either one, but the Gen 4 will be slowed down to a Gen 3.
