Razer Blade 17 NVMe 4.0 ssd Compatibility

I currently own Product No: RZ09-02878E92 and I want to upgrade the current NVMe SSD to a NVMe 4.0 (Gen 4) SSD Drive. Does any one know where to find the Mother board specs so I can see if it compatible, or does any know if it is compatible.

Here is the drive I was looking at:

Thanks

Current chipset only works with Gen 3. Went for dual Samsung 970 Evo plus
That sucks! But thanks for the reply my friend!
Gen 3 is already fast as it is...well unless you are a creator and need more
It's interesting looking at that product. While the read speeds are 40% faster on a gen 4 MB, the write speeds are actually 80% faster on the Gen 3! I just went with the Samsung 970 EVO plus as well.

Wow good info! And you're referring to the Samsung 970 correct, just make sure.

I'm just referring to the info on the Sabrent page you linked. It says that drive will have faster writes on Gen 3 than Gen 4 in the description. It is backward compatible with Gen 3 and would have similar speeds as the 970 at a similar price, so the Sabrent may be worth a shot for futureproofing anyway.
Ohhh..gotcha! I appreciate your response! Baffled that it reads so fast on the Gen 3 but I'm not complaining. Definitely going to grab one once it's on sale again!
