Here is my desktop: OMEN by HP Desktop PC - 870-131.

  • Expansion Slots:
    • 1 PCI Express x16 (Gen3.0)

Issue: There is no additional information about the M.2 socket, such as the generation it supports or if it has NVMe technology to add a internal SSD PCis M.2.

 

I would like to know if

 

  • it should works a PCIe NVMe Gen4 M.2 2280 Internal SSD or a PCIe NVMe Gen3 M.2 2280 Internal SSD ?

I would like to upgrade and add Internal SSD PCIe NVMe  in this motherboard of this Desktop.

 

In case of both, it will get the full speed out of it?

 

Thanks for helping! 🙃
