Hello, I just got my new laptop and it comes with a 512GB SSD and that is quite little. So can I add an additional SSD to the laptop? Is there another slot and if there is are there any restrictions? Thanks in advance!

 

p.s. please tell me everything in human words because I don't understand that much about computers 🙂

Its specs

It has TWO M.2 NVMe slots. If has 512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ TLC M.2 SSD now, you can add same or larger (capacity) to slot 2. You can use 2TB which is normal size for 2280 M.2 SSD drives. One example:

Hello, I am back again with another question... So I installed an additional SSDas you told me. Its the Samsung SSD980 nvme M.2 1TB. And I turned on my laptop, it was loading for like 5 minutes, then the blue screen of death came up and it started loading again and actually loaded. I went to computer management, added the disc and turned it off again to see if the issue had fixed. It hadn't. It did the same thing. Then I noticed that the performance of the laptop had gotten insanely bad. I did a benchmark and it was just all a disaster. Overall the pc is very very slow now, I am very sad and I desperately need help!

Thanks a lot in advance!
