Does my motherboard support this NVMe SSD?

Question

I have an Aspire TC-710 motherboard, and I was planning to get this NVMe M.2 SSD .

I'm really new to computers and don't know much; can I install this SSD in my motherboard?

No.

The official manual from Acer does not provide specifications and the Acer support page for the ATC-710 is also missing that information.

However, Crucial says you can't run an NVMe SSD, only SATA, confirmed by UserBenchmark, which matches what Ron found in the earlier answer.

Don't spend any money on NVMe unless you can get Acer Support to confirm it works, but SATA-III SSDs are safe.

Just a note: personally I find Crucial to give false information, for example it says that my laptop Asus N552VW supports 32GB of RAM while in reality, the Asus docs mention that it only supports up to 16GB of RAM.

type in your serial number to see motherboard specs.

you are wanting an SSD 970 EVO NVMe M.2 1TB

so you want to make sure you can plug an M.2 NVMe device in.

^^ they mention up to 256gb, I would email ACER support with your serial # prior to be sure prior spending $169.99.

Here is an image of the TC-710 mobo. On the top right, next to the power socket, is an M.2 slot.
