Is it okay to put Gen 3 SSD in my motherboards Gen 4 pcie slots?

Just to be clear, you can run a PCIe SSD in a PCIe slot , it just runs at PCIe speeds Which kind of negates the purpose

Is it okay to put Gen 3 SSD in my motherboards Gen 4 pcie slots? Factoring in overheads such as encoding latency, heat and other real world dynamics, this speed comes down slightly, to a tested Gbs

m2_1 slot For instance, a x16 slot with only 4 PCIe lanes is quite common cards using the PCIe standard in the WWAN slot Some notebooks

They are all compatible Even a PCIe SSD will work just fine, but the speed will be limited to PCIe x4

m2 sata slot Kinda odd he spent nearly 4 minutes talking about the difference between Gen 3 and Gen 4

The card physically has an X4 interface, so it could be plugged into an X4, X8, or X16 slot It can still physically only access 4 lanes (else
