I have a spare Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 (7265NGW) from a laptop. I'm wondering whether I can use it in my desktop (MB: MSI Z97 PC Mate) as a wireless/Bluetooth adaptor.

In order to do that:

Question 1. Can I use it directly on the MSI Z97 PC Mate which has a PCI slot, I guess?

Question 2. Or, can I install it on an M.2/NGFF to USB adaptor like this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263870882379 directly?

Or do I need another adaptor?

Thanks for any help from the experts!
