Yes, it supports NVMe drives. It'll run a PCIe 3.0 x4 drive, which is plenty for fast storage.

Although I guess it depends on your CPU, too.

Are you using a Ryzen 3 3200G, mentioned in your other thread?

If so, this is the line relevant to the M.2 support of this motherboard:

Quote

3rd/2nd/1st Gen AMD Ryzen™/ 2nd and 1st Gen AMD Ryzen™ with Radeon™ Vega Graphics :
1 x M.2 Socket 3, with M key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (SATA & PCIE 3.0 x 4 mode)

In this context "PCIE" means "an NVME SSD", so yes this motherboard (with the 3200G and other Ryzen CPU's) supports an M.2 NVME SSD. You can use whatever type, but the fastest it will run is PCIE 3.0 x4 (so if you get a PCIE 4.0 drive, it won't run at the max speed).

yes an nvme would run well. your cpu supports 20 pcie lanes 4 for an m.2 nvme ssd and 16 for a gpu if you have no other pcie devices that would require bifurcation
