Hello,

I want to buy an ssd.

1) IS it an "M" key ssd?

2) I want to put it into PCIE 2.0 slot, if I insert ssd into pci e adapter, will the ssd gain the additional bandwidth from x8 slot or will it be stuck at x4 speeds as the adapter is PCIE3.0x4.

Problem is:

Besides SSD not being shown in The Bios, It is also not being identified by the OS(Win7). With the following message: Pcie device drivers could not be found.

I run P68 chipset but before saying it is not supported, etc, I can boot from 750ssd.
