" rel="nofollow - Though MP500 m2 NVME is not in the list supported list for M.2 pcie NVMe, but in review on customer using it and it is working.

Whether Extreme4 will support Corsair MP500 M.2 ssd NVMe 128GB or not?

You should have no problem running any nvme M.2 SSD in any motherboard that has a M.2 slot as long as the slot is linked to a PCIe connection, be it PCIe 2.0 or 3.0 x4, you will get best results in the x4 3.0 slot, but it will work in a 2.0 x4 slot at slower speeds if the drive you are installing can do more than 2GB/s Read/Write. There are many Extreme4 motherboards you will need to be more precise in the exact model name.

If the slot is a PCIe M.2 not SATA M.2 slot any nvme drive will work in 99% of cases, these specifications are listen in every motherboards tech info page, and also on laptops tech specs/manuals, so check these and confirm

The speed difference between a 2.0 and 3.0 x4 M.2 slot is a theoretical maximum of 2GB/s (Gigabytes/s) for the 2.0 x4 vs about 3.94GB/s for the 3.0 x4
