It is pretty much a waste of money to try and upgrade a really old PC with the latest and greatest. You won't get anywhere near the rated speed even if you can get it to work, because of the limited pcie lanes available on the computer.



Make sure you have the BIOS updated, check the linux forums for the info on installing Linux on legacy BIOS/UEFI systems. You will probably need to install custom drivers to recognize and format the NVME. Sector size can also be an issue, as some drives will only work with a particular size.



Remove any other drives in the system.


Good luck
