I was wondering if an M.2 NVME SSD was compatible with my motherboard, specifically this SSD: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crucial-CT1000P5SSD8-Internal-Drive-up-2280SS/dp/B087QRVVVH/ref=psdc_430505031_t3_B07VXC9QMH?th=1
My motherboard is an ASUS Prime H310M - A R2.0. Thanks

Yes, it would work with that motherboard. M.2 NVME SSD's use the PCIE interface, which this motherboard supports:

1 x M.2 Socket 3, , with M Key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (both SATA & x2 PCIE mode)*1

The x2 PCIE does mean the SSD can only run at up to 2000MB/s, instead of its max of 3400MB/s

Yes, your motherboard supports M.2 SSDs with a length of 2280.
