Hello,
I'm considering the "Samsung 950 PRO Series - 512GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD (MZ-V5P512BW)" for my MSI Z170A GAMING M7 mobo. The mobo manual says:
"Supports PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe Mini-SAS SSD with Turbo U.2 Host Card**
** The Turbo U.2 Host Card is not included, please purchase separately."
Does this mean that I have to buy this card to use that NVMe SSD to its fullest capacity? Do I have to buy this card to use it at all? Or do I not need the card? I'm confused about the form factors involved here.
Thanks.
