M.2 Drive compatibility issue with Mobo

[spenncerr]

Hey guys,

I just recently got a WD Blue 250GB M.2 drive from the members market.

This one: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/wd-b...-solid-state-drive-wds250g1b0b-hd-53k-wd.html

Tried putting it into this motherboard: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...cket-1151-ddr4-atx-motherboard-mb-68u-as.html

And on boot I'm getting an error saying it isn't compatible with an M.2_2

I'm not sure on the difference tbh?

Are these two just not compatible?

Is it in the right M.2 slot?

Only one of the two M.2 slots supports SATA & PCI-E.
