Hi:

Your notebook supports both SATA and NVMe M.2 SSD's.

See chapter 1 of the service manual for the supported drive types...

I dont know a lot about technology. but i read that there is 2 types of ssds (pcie and sata)

wich one should i buy?

You're very welcome.

PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD's run faster than SATA M.2 SSD's do, but they also run hotter because of the very fast drive speeds.

The best SATA M.2 drives have read speeds of 560 MB/S, and write speeds of 530 MB/S.

Some NVMe drives have read speeds of 3,500 MB/S and write speeds of 2,500 MB/S, so you can see the difference in how fast a NVMe SSD could be compared to a SATA one.

So if you want very fast, go NVMe.  If you want a fast but cooler running drive, go SATA.
