Hi everyone. Looking up the manual for the B550M logic board I just purchased, it says to check asrock.com for latest M.2 SDD compatability list. I cannot find any onsite, can someone please provide an updated list or location where to find it. I wanted to buy M.2 to setup as my windows 10 boot drive but wanted to check if the brand and model i wanted to buy in amazon.co.uk is definitely compatible. https://smile.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TLYWMYW/?coliid=I3LK66UZYXQO91&colid=P2I48W2ASBFI&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it_im Its a Sabrent 1TB Rocket Nvme PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Internal SSD Maximum Performance Solid State Drive (SB-ROCKET-NVMe4-1TB) |

the B550m Steel Legend supports the PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 standard .. so unless Sabrent is purposefully not wanting to follow those standards ..it will work just fine. It's the same with the plethora of different DDR4 make and models out there .. as long as the companies adhere to the DDR4 memory standards (aside from ECC compatability) they will all work in your motherboard.. (with Matisse CPU's anyway) Reading the reviews .. drive is running great on varied x570 platforms, no reason why it won't work on B550 ------------- |Ryzen 5 5900|ASRock X570 Taichi-BIOS 4.60|2x16GB HyperX Predator RGB 3200@3600 1:1 IF|ASRock RX 6700XT|2 x PCIe 4.0 M.2 Drives for OS & Games|850 WTT Seasonic 80+ Titanium PSU|Noctua NH-D15| |

Thanks threedee, thats what i thought too. I am using ryzen 5 3600 matisse, so its pci4 spec. I already ordered, i want this to be the boot system disk. Looking forward to getting the build done once everything arrives. |
