15 R2, 2015, Samsung 860 EVO SSD upgrade

Question

Hi, I am planning to buy Samsung 860 EVO 500GB SATA M.2 (2280) Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) (MZ-N6E500). https://www.amazon.in/Samsung-860-SATA-Internal-MZ-N6E1T0BW/dp/B078218TWQ/ref=pd_rhf_ee_p_img_4?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=D7FW8D4ZB01C6P88030X&th=1 Would this work in my Alienware 15 R2 2015 MODEL with 500 gb capacity. Please confirm cause I won't be able to return this if it won't work and it will be a total loss of money.

Hi @Ahmed Almassri welcome to this user to user discussion forum. This is not Dell Support.

Dell Support for Alienware 15 R2 Here says Storage interface is M.2 SATA III 6 Gbps. Samsung 860 EVO SATA interface is M.2 SATA III 6 Gbps. The Samsung 860 EVO will work in the Alienware 15 R2.
