Yes — this laptop takes NVMe M.2 SSDs.
- Reports
- 95
- Saw NVMe
- 96%
- Fastest link observed
- PCIe Gen3 ×4
The fastest link we saw in real machines was PCIe Gen3 ×4. That is a floorobserved in field reports, not the slot’s ceiling — a faster drive still works because PCIe is backward compatible; it simply runs at the slot’s speed.
Field reports can’t tell us how many slots are empty or which M.2 length the slot takes. Most modern laptops use the 2280 length — check the service manual before you buy.
