You'll have no problem using any NVMe or AHCI PCIe M.2 SSD in the Z170 Extreme7+ board.
As others have said, you can run a two or three 950 Pro RAID array in this board. I have a Samsung 950 Pro and SM951 M.2, and an OCZ RD400 M.2 PCIe SSDs in my Z170 Extreme7+ board. Two are NVMe SSDs, the other an AHCI SSD. None are SATA M.2 SSDs. If you have never installed Windows on an NVMe SSD, you might want to take a look at my guide for installing PCIe SSDs as the OS drive: http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1236&title=how-to-install-windows-on-a-pcie-ssd |

Morning, Yes, without any problems. My board is this one (btw a very good one), and i've installed W10 as boot driver in one 950 PRO and in raid0 (2 x 950 PRO), which is my actual config. Good luck
