Just bought this computer and wanted to add a NVMe M.2 SSD. Also, is there an advance BIOS system and, if so, how does one access it?
Thanks for your help,
Mike

There is an M.2 SSD slot, example of what does work.
About your BIOS question.......WHY ?

Thanks for the Quick reply. However, the example you gave is for slower ssds and not what i want to install. What I need is a definitive yes or no. and if not, then how about a Samsung V-NAND SSD?
As for the BIOS question, I am 77 years old and bought my 1st computer in 1983 --- means i am an old geezer. Since that time, I have built 12 machines and I always tweaked the BIOS settings. Had I known that the BIOS on this machine was dumbed down, i would have not bought it.

It was only an example of the specification.
