You can check this page, go down to storage. You will see 1- Ultra m.2 at pcie3x4 speeds, and 1- m.2 at sata3 speeds.

If any of the slots are SATA-only, that means SATA only--i.e. you can't use an NVMe in there period. NVMe is not compatible with SATA, it doesn't just downgrade to SATA speeds, it simply won't work. Now if it's limited to a lower PCIe speed, it will work at that lower speed, but not if it's SATA-only slot.

Anyway has WD fixed their marketing BS/fiasco with the shingled business on the HDD side of things yet? Not really in the market for any more SSDs myself but just wondering if I should be recommending people to buy their stuff again...

Thinking if this would pair well with the Thinkpad P14s deal from earlier this month, makes more sense to buy a larger faster SSD than pay $60 cad for another 256GB half-length SSD to populate the WWLAN slot.

SN750, yes most likely.

SN550, possibly not compatible, not worth the risk.
I aim to be inclusive and considerate of others in my posts. If I fall short of that mark, feel free to let me know in good faith, and where appropriate, I'll edit my posts. Thank you.

Yes it is compatible with that. The SN550 is as well. Think...NVMe.

Also. How much difference will m.2 make compare to Sata ssd. Currently on Samsung evo 870
It's got a M.2 slot, but it's a Wlan socket and doesn't support storage drives. https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c05355651

If i only got a Bitcoin for every time someone referenced Bitcoin in the last week I’d surpass Musk/Bezos as the richest person in the world. 🥴

Yes and no. If he isn't using his x4 slot for a graphics card then could get an adapter that fits and not affect performance. If just has the 1X slot open then yes will be capped at ~985 MB/s, or 8Gbps.
