It is compatible with any laptop or desktop motherboard that has an M.2 slot supporting PCIe NVMe. Always check your motherboard or laptop specifications to confirm you have an available M.2 M-Key slot that supports NVMe (not SATA-only M.2).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What is the difference between TLC and QLC NAND flash?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: TLC (Triple-Level Cell) stores 3 bits per cell and generally offers a good balance of speed, endurance, and cost. QLC (Quad-Level Cell) stores 4 bits per cell, allowing higher capacities at lower cost, though with somewhat lower write endurance. For everyday computing and gaming, both perform excellently. The CV3500 model uses TLC; the CV3500Q may use TLC or QLC depending on capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Does this NVMe SSD require a heatsink or cooling solution?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The CUSU NVMe SSD already includes a built-in cooling fin that helps manage heat during intensive read\/write operations. In most standard laptop and desktop installations, no additional heatsink is necessary, though some high-performance desktop setups may benefit from extra airflow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can I use this drive as a boot drive to install Windows or another OS?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes. This M.2 NVMe SSD supports use as a primary boot drive. Install your operating system directly onto it for the fastest possible startup and load times.
