Maximus VII Hero and m.2 ssd's

I'm considering the purchase of a m.2 ssd, samsung 970 evo 1tb, to move my programs to but can't seem to locate any information on whether or not this mb is compatible with it. Have any of you used this or any other m key m.2 ssd on this mb and if so which one and how did it turn out?

I suppose that I could buy a separate pcie slot card and stick it in an open slot with a similar effect on the slots but would like to hear from folks who've already been down this path.
