Hello Is the Samsung 860 evo compatible or would you recommend something else? https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/samsung-860-evo-1000gb-m2-2280-ssd-7197990

Hello Psyarel92,

I myself have installed a Samsung 970 Evo (500 GB) and this works without any problems.
Your SSD works with the AHCI protocol and not NVMe so I think this is not quite compatible.

My recommendation:
If 520 MB/s is enough for you: Icy Box IB-183WP-C31 (M.2 2230, M.2 2242, M.2 2260, M.2 2280)

If you need the faster speeds: Samsung 970 EVO (1000GB, M.2 2280)

PS: The 970 EVO is currently even 4.- cheaper than the 860 EVO (both 1TB).


Greetings and all the best
