All installed and loving the x2 speed just fine!  Im getting 1600 read and 1300 write.  I'm good with that.  Works fine as boot drive.  Of note, the Acronis software bundled with Adata is crap.  I used Macrium to clone.

Hi! Wonder how could you reach the M.2 SSD port. It seems quite complicated to reassemble this desktop. I took out the HDD and the DVD, still cannot get close to the M2 port. I think I have to take the front cover of the case, which I don't really know how to do. Any help is appreciated.

Hi @jafrisi. I cloned the hard disk using macrium reflect successfully. However the OS cannot boot from the SSD. I installed XPG gammix s11 onto the M.2 2280 slot successfully. Must be missing something here

Got it a few hours after posting the above message. The ssd has to be initiliased as GPT instead of MBR. I missed that one in previous readings. So once I initialised the ssd again based on GPT, run the clone again using macrium and the desktop is able to boot using the ssd. Just updating this here to close this matter.
