Hi, hoping to add an additional SSD without cloning/replacing my current my 250GB C drive SSD. My specs and storage info are below. Can you tell me what specific kinds of SSDs I could add in to my desktop case without replacing what I already have? Want to add in SSD of like 500gb or maybe 1tb that I can use for video editing. Is there space/compatibility in my desktop case for an NMVe, PCIe or just regular Sata SSD, or all of the above? Would my desktop case have an extra space plus compatibility for all of these options? Any amazon links to specific models options would be great! Thank you very much for any input!

You should be able to ADD a 2.5" SATA SSD to your machine but mounting it to the case could be a bit tricky. Its specs does not say anything about spare bay on its Chasiss therefore this is a DIY job.

 

Regards.

Thanks so much for your input, BH! Do you think this product would work and that I should be fine with the mounting bracket sold with it?
