Hello,
i was wondering if i could get a newer ssd (like a samsung 850 pro) with my newer motherboard because i dont think it supports nvme. it is a ga-z87-hd3. what ssds can i get and what cant i get? i have an 840 evo now and its not performing very well,
Thank you.

it doesnt' support nvme but it will support any sata ssds - so any sata ssd that has decent reviews should be fine
