Not gonna lie, unless you have some specific workloads that require faster storage access you are not going to see much improvement by swapping in nvme ssd over sata ssd…

Since your board doesn’t have m.2 slot, I assume it’s rather old system and would probably get best performance boost by swapping CPU to faster one on same socket. You can probably find a 2nd hand fitting i7 for the same price you’d pay for the pcie card for m.2 slot. Also ram upgrade to 16gb or more (if not kitted already) could be beneficial
