I am not the richest man in the world, but my computer is suffering, i currently am running 2 tb of hdd, and it takes about 30 minutes for my pc to load windows to a usable state. I have one m.2 2280 slot, but my motherboard has no more sata ports, so i will have to get an NVME ssd. I have spent weeks trying to clear one of my 1tb C drive down to 500gb, but i just can’t do it with everything i need, so i just need help choosing the best card for under 100$ or if anyone has an extra one they could give me, i would totally appreciate it :)

Do note that installing an NVMe-drive will most likely disable some of your SATA-ports! Check your mobo's manual which ones.

The Kingston A2000 is a decent and well priced M.2 NVME SSD.

What motherboard are you using anyways?

Really! i wasn’t aware of this, i don’t have a manual because i have been upgrading this pc from a pre-built. :/ It’s an hp 8399

Probs doesn't even have nvme

Reminder⚠️

I'm just speaking from experience so what I say may not work 100%

Please try searching up the answer before you post here but I am always glad to help
