Hello, can anyone tell me whether this SSD is compatible with the 2nd M.2 slot of a 'Medion z370h4-em' mainboard? I had installed one from Samsung, but it was not recognised, nor was it listed or recognised in the BIOS.

Thanks for the answer, greetings.

Hello,
Contrary to what schndi says, this SSD is not an M.2 NVMe, but an M.2 SATA, recognisable by the 2 notches on the contactor.
The Médion card mentioned has an M.2/M-Key SATA III slot. So the WD Blue SATA M.2 2280 is suitable. See specifications below:

It says that the mainboard has three m.2 slots; one short one for WLAN cards, two long ones, each with 1 SATA and 1 nvme. This WD Blue 2TB is an nvme.
