Dell Vostro 3471 M.2 SSD (NVMe or SATA)

Hi All,

Just bought a Vostro 3471 with a 9th gen i5. I am going to be upgrading the cloning the HDD to an SSD and useing the original HDD as a storage drive. 

I am unsure what M.2 SSD I should be buying. Can anyone please give me some advice? 

Thank you.

Vostro 3470 manual states that the M.2 SSD slot is for a B keyed SATA M.2 SSD.

Setup manual specifies one M.2 2230/2280 SATA solid-state drive SATA  with AHCI, up to 6 Gbps interface 

 

That is 22 mm wide and 30 or 80 mm long. 

 

I installed a Kingston 480 GB 2280 SSD  

 

Dell service manual shows how to install but figures were not too clear to me.  Wife helped!!!  And I needed help in migrating or cloning my OS from a tech at EaseUS because I could not change boot sequence myself.
