Hey guys, I have a Dell Inspiron 5577 Gaming laptop (i5 7300HQ, 8gb ddr4 2600mhz Ram, GTX1050 4gb) and I ran out of storage on my main Sata drive (WD Blue 256gb SSD) and my laptop has a nvme enabled m.2 slot, so I have 200$ US and I want to buy a new drive, so my question is, do I get a 500gb WD Black NVMe drive or a slower 1Tb WD Blue (Sata Speeds) for the same price??? and will my pc support it??? plz help

From the looks of it, the Inspiron 5577 supports both SATA and NVMe M.2 SSDs.

I personally will choose more space over an option for NVMe if you're the type of person that has a lot of data.
