Hello.

My motherboard is a MSI Z97-G45.

I want to buy a M.2 SSD  especially the SAMSUNG SSD 960 EVO 250GB but my motherboard does not have a M.2 slot. 

 

With this adapter https://www.amazon.com/Asus-Accessory-32Gbit-flexibility-Retail/dp/B017YUCAXS will the SSD work at max read and write speed ?

Thx for help .
