Can the Dell G15 5530 accept NVMe PCIe gen5 x4?
crucial.com shows them as an option, but I can't find it being directly stated that it can or can't.

It will but at PCIe 4 speed. The system does not have native PCIe 5 drive support.

That's a good question. Crucial listing Gen5 drives might just mean they're compatible at a lower speed. From what I’ve seen, the G15 5530 supports PCIe Gen4 x4, but not Gen5. You could still use a Gen5 drive, but it would run at Gen4 speeds. Would be great if Dell clarified this more clearly.
