Compatible between mobo and SSD, mobo and win10

plushkinn
I have the P8H67-M mobo.
I plan to buy Kingston V300 240Gb SSD, but can't find it in compatible list of SSD for mobo. 

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8H67M/HelpDesk_QVL/

Will it be compatible?

-----------------------------

And also will the mobo P8H67-M be compatible with win10 if it doesn't have it in the list on manufacturer's site?

P.S. I heard that it won't be cause of not existing drivers.

I don't know if the V300 is still plagued with bad manufacturing hardware but you might want to avoid that particular SSD anyways:

But to answer your question, it would be compatible.
That motherboard has two SATA 6gb ports.

even if the mobo had SATA 2 or 1 those would still work just slower unless the mobo was IDE only it would work

But what about mobo and win10. I heard about some secure boot. What the secure boot is?

Secure boot is software protection. The SSD is hardware.
So long as it's SATA and not in M.2 form, any SSD will work.

as long as there were drivers for any previous version of windows it will work secure boot just only boots trusted OSs so windows would work fine even if it didn't you could turn it off in BIOS
