Will MSI H110I-PRO support Samsung 850 EVO M.2

Altair44 · Aug 30, 2017

Hi guys

My motherboard is https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/H110I-PRO.html

It has a M.2 20Gb/s (PCI-E mode only) slot underneath.

So i was wondering, if the below product will work with it...if anyone tried similar configuration before. If it does, i am planning to make this my primary drive.

Thanks

thats a sata m2

not a pci-e

20 Gb/sec is still pretty darn fast, so, even if not as fast as the full PCi-eX4 lanes (32 Gb/sec) of M.2 on Z270, but 2000 MB/sec reads should be doable...and very fast

and if you used say a 960 pro

you wont get full read speed with a 20Gbs port

mdd1963 :

it wont be doable with the drive they linked

its a sata m2 so no faster than a 2.5 ssd

ie roughly 550MBs

the 850 evo M.2 (SATA controller) won´t work in this motherboard.

Get a 960 evo or a standard SATA III 2.5" SSD like https://www.amazon.in/Samsung-500GB-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E500BW/dp/B00S17G21K/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1504092907&sr=1-1&keywords=ssd+500gb+850+evo

which will be equally as fast as the M.2 850 evo

20 Gb/sec is still 2000 MB/sec....yes, it won't match the 3200 MB/sec the drive is capable of , but, it is still about 4x the standard SSD...

helpstar :

I can confirm it has a M.2(PCI-E only) slot under the motherboard.
