Crucial must sell their products, you will even see that they give you higher frequency, but that does not mean they go at those speeds, the speed is limited, you can never go at those speeds if the processor does not allow it and the processors in this model are all PCIe 3, in fact when their model was built there were no Gen 4 disks,

Hi @qwertykd 

 

You can put a Gen 4 SSD but the speed will be reduced to the speed of a Gen 3 SSD, if in the future you want to have another PC that uses Gen 4 it might be convenient to buy it and then use it, check the price difference and see what suits you better.
