Can you use different nvme ssd's on a pc? Like have one samsung evo 970 and a wd sn750

yes, assuming your motherboard can take two M.2 SSD's (as in, assuming your motherboard has two M.2 NVME slots)

If you have the slots yes you can but you have to make sure your motherboard supports it usually they come with 1-2 slots but not always supports 2 nvme check if it supports it.

It's the z590-E

you could use 3 NVME SSD's (with Intel 10th gen) or 4 NVME SSD's (with Intel 11th gen).

the first M.2 slot only works with Intel 11th gen CPU's and the fourth slot will disable SATA port 6 if it's used with an M.2 SATA drive (not M.2 NVME/PCIE).
