asrock The Corsair MP300 Should fit my MotherBoard right?

[AndrewMKlasen]

I have an ASRock Z370 Extreme 4 with two M.2 ports, the Corsair MP300 M.2 NVMe SSD should be compatible with the board right?

or should I get the MP510 SSD?

Yes, it will work.

That said, the MP300 has a SATA controller, which menas it will perform like your average 2.5" sata SSD.

The MP510 however is has a pcie nvme controller. Which means it uses pci-e to communicate instead of sata (4 pci-e 3.0 lanes to be precise). So it can be faster sequentially, the rest of the specs i dunno. But both of them will probably be ok.

 

Little detail tho, your board turns off certain sata ports when you use one of those ultra M.2 slots so if you are currently using all of your sata ports, you will have a problem.

I know they turn off 2 SATA ports for each m.2 slot used, only planning for 1 M.2 so I'll choose the MP10 for faster speeds. Thanks.
