I have a Macbook Pro Mid-2017 w/o touch bar and I want to be able to dual boot the device with Windows 10. But I only have the 128gb and that's not enough to download games for Windows. I was wondering if the Samsung 860 EVO Internal SSD Drive will work for my Macbook?
Es esta una buena pregunta?

NO. There’s no place to put it.
Standard Storage:128, 256 GB SSD*Std. Storage Speed:N/A
Details:*This model ships with either a 128 GB or 256 GB SSD by default, but it can be upgraded at the time of purchase to 512 GB or 1 TB at additional cost.
Officially, Apple notes that the storage
is "onboard" in all "Late 2016" and "Mid-2017" Touch Bar MacBook Pro models, regardless of size, which would bode poorly for the possibility of future upgrades.
As documented by OWC, regardless of generation, all 13-Inch and 15-Inch models with the "Touch Bar" functionality do, in fact, have the SSD soldered in place which makes them impossible to upgrade after purchase.
However, in an unexpected surprise that is contrary to Apple's official documentation, the entry-level 13-Inch "Late 2016" and "Mid-2017" models without the Touch Bar actually do have the SSD mounted on a small proprietary module, so future upgrades theoretically are possible! However they are not available as of this date.

To add to Mayers answer the Apple SSD uses a custom interface and its different in what Apple had used in older systems as well as being much smaller than the Samsung M.2 drive

I upgraded my 2012 MacBook Pro with Samsung 860 EVO by using adaptor, I tried to moving this SSD to a 2017 MacBook Pro A1708, but it does not fit the adaptor I bought which is suitable for Samsung 960 model.
Searching a way to use the Samsung 860 EVO will update if I find way.
