In principle, the SSD is suitable for every board. So it's not so much a question of the SSD but of the suitability of your board. I don't know the B560 Express, maybe you give an exact designation, but in general: in the specification, check if a Nvme m.2 slot is already on the board (if so, you can start right away), otherwise I recommend you to install a PCIe card that accepts a m.2 Nvme SSD (bspl article 16647150 from Digitec). Hope this helps

Hi Simon Yes, it has the same "mechanical size" as the original 1TB M.2. 2280 refers to the width and length of the M.2 drives. From a forum: The length and width of M. 2 storage can often be deduced from the model name: For example, an "M. 2 2280" card is 22 millimetres wide and 80 millimetres long. The length varies from 30 to 110 millimetres. Greetings Bruno

Yes, that is possible. However, your mainboard is PCIE 4.0 capable. The nvme is only 3.0. It will run perfectly and you will hardly notice the difference to 4.0.

Hi there, this is more of a PS5 question than a Kingston M.2 SSD question. Sony recommends: PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 NVMe SSD with a sequential read rate of 5500MB/s and a passive heat sink. You can upgrade the heat sink for ~20Fr if it fits in the slot. The maximum dimensions for the slot are: 110mm x 25mm x 11.25mm. The Kingston here is very cheap, but only offers PCIe 3.0 and 2100MB/s. Tip: Go to one of the relevant PS5 community sites and see what they recommend. There you can also read whether a cheap version is worth it or whether you'll just get into trouble.

According to the news article https://www.anandtech.com/show/16587/kingston-introduces-nv1-entrylevel-nvme-ssd, it is really a ridiculous 480TB. And Kingston probably doesn't specify whether the cheap crap QLC is on it or not. I wouldn't buy them.
