Hi,

 

I have a Dell XPS 13 9350 (late 2015) and I want to upgrade the SSD. Is the PCIe slot an x2 slot or an x4 slot? I'm think its an x4 but I want to make sure.

 

Thanks

That laptop uses nvme SSD's, so as long as its nvme it should work.

Should be a M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4

Thanks a lot

 

I asked my question wrong. I meant to say if the M.2 slot uses x4 or x2 speeds, not an actual PCIe slot.

Most laptops also now use M.2 for wifi cards.
