Try to go NVMe if you can. SATA is okay too if you run out of PCIe lanes though.
Go with M.2 nvme.<br>
 
Samsung 970 Evo or 980 Pro are the default safe choices.<br>
Samsung SSDs are the most popular but are more expensive than others so I never buy them. 
Avoid SSDs without DRAM. Check online for specs.
For PCIe 3.0, I typically go for HP EX920, HP EX950, or Adata SX8200. For sata, the Adata SU800 is good.
 
If you're on a budget and need a lot of storage, you can go for QLC drives such as Intel 660p. 
However, these have worse endurance and performance can suffer for large extended writes.
 
Avoid SSDs without DRAM. Check Anandtech for reviews.
