I am buying a nvme ssd which is 960gb and after doing research my pc does support nvme because it is PCIE, however my old ssd is 128gb will my pc be able read 960gb or it wont read it at all. Because I hear that some laptops have maximum capicty which if I have for example 4 tb that I want to install on a laptop that can handle maximum 2tb, the 4tb will be read as 2tb. Bellow is my pc specs

If this is a pc we are talking about, most pc mobos support those sizes rare if it doesn't but what you have to be aware of is if your system is capable of nvme since some 128gb ssd's are sata and that may be a hint that the mobo is to, learned this stuff the hard way

That spec list tells us nothing, apart from that the ssd in your computer is not an M.2 it's a regular ssd with sata cable
