HELP to find the right SSD

Hi


I got a ROG GL752VW, I'm between these 2 models:

1- Samsung SM951 128GB M.2 NGFF PCIe Gen3 8Gb/s x4 SSD (2280) NVME MZVPV128HDGM-000

2- Samsung 850 EVO 120GB M.2 2280 SATA III SSD ( MZ-N5E120BW )


There are 2 questions:

1-Is the M.2 drive a boot drive?
2-The PCIe one is faster but if it is less compatible then is there more latency?


Thanks

1. It can be.
2. Samsung's RAPID mode will help to increase the performance of the 850 EVO drive. With RAPID, the 850 EVO can rival the performance of the 951 in some situations.
