Adding 2nd SSD to Omen 875-0024

[gnoll]

New to the community. Just purchased an Omen 875-0024 and I want to add a 1tb HP SSD EX920 M.2. The desktop came with a 256gb SSD and I can see it attached to the mother board. Is there another slot for an additional SSD drive? Is there an adapter to attach it to one of the PCLe slot? Or is it even an option to have 2 SSD drives?

If not, how do I replace the current one? All of the programs and OS are on the SSD that is currently installed. Tried searching the internet and this forum for the answer but can't seem to locate and threads on it.

There are 2.5" converters for the 3.5" caddies.

Thank you REO51ST, my question was about the Solid State Drive, not the SATA HDD. I had to purchase software to move the OS from the Solid State Drive to the HDD and then back again after I installed the new Solid State Drive. I use PARAGON, it worked great. Itried Macrium but it didn't work so well.

Thanks for replying, all solved now.
