I haven't tested the Crucial 2.5's but I have seen issues reported. As for Intel, do you have the model numbers? The AW15 and AW17 R2 work with the m.2 models of the Intel SSD's, but I haven't seen issues with the 2.5's yet either.

Someone replied Intel 530 is not working with AW13, but it is only AW13's case,

I heard crucial SSD's are working with AW15 and AW17 r2 well.

I can confirm that the 530 is not working. However, my intel 520 works absolutely fine. I'm considering buying a Samsung 850 though, my old 520 is only a 180gb so I'd like a capacity upgrade.
