Hi there,

I am confused on whether I can do this build.

The Link shows what is in my PC currently apart from the SSD. I do not understand what it means with the compatibility note?

"The motherboard M.2 slot #1 shares bandwidth with SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports. When the M.2 slot is populated, two SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports are disabled."

I want to know whether it will be possible to add the selected SSD to my current PC by keeping the rest of my specs such as the hard-rive, graphics card, power supply and motherboard the same?

Sorry Im such a noob at this :D

 
Solution
Yes it'll be fine, all it's saying is 2 SATA ports will be diabled when you use the SSD. If it's one of them the hard drive is using you'll just need to switch ports
