M.2 to Pcie adapter or just a SSD

Hello there anyone who is taking his time to read this,

I am in desperate need of new storage for my pc. I was wondering if i should get a Pcie to m.2 adapter with a nvme ssd or just a basic 2.5 SSD. I heard nvme ssd's are super fast but i thought that i would lose speed because of my motherboard not having any m.2 slots but i read online that i normally  shouldn't lose any speed.

Thanks

 

(sorry for bad english)

Why do you want an NVME/PCIE SSD? Most people don't need these sorts of SSD's and a 'normal' 2.5" SSD would work just fine.

So you think its better to get a 2.5" SSD and more capacity?

Depends on what you're storing on the drive.

For games and general use, an NVME drive does not make sense (if you can get a higher capacity drive for less of course). If it is high-speed storage for video editing, it could make sense.
