You're very welcome.

 

Here is a screenshot of my Dell Optiplex 7020 PC with 4 sticks of Crucial DDR3L-1600 memory.

 

As you can see, it indicates Crucial/Micron

Paul, could you tell me?

 

1. Which small form factor ssd will work in my system? M.2 sata or nvme? Also could you share the link?

2. What max capacity can be used for such ssd? Does it have some heating problems to go beyond a certain size and speed?

Hi:

 

Your notebook's M.2 slot supports SATA SSD's only, not NVMe.

 

With a SATA SSD there should be little concern for an increase in temperature as they don't run as fast as a NVMe SSD does.

 

You should be able to go with a M.2 SATA drive up to 2 TB if you want.

 

I recommend the Western Digital Blue SATA M.2 SSD's which normally have the best performance for the price.

 

This would be the 500 GB model.

 

Amazon.in: Buy Western Digital WD Blue m.2 SATA SSD, 560MB/s R, 530MB/s W, 5 Y Warranty, 500GB Onlin...
