Im aware that my bios in uefi mode has a limit of ssd size but ik not sure what it is off hand, wondering if someone does, bios version is like F.50 or higher i believe, i want to add a 1tb M.2 nvme ssd to boot from and a 2tb sata 3 2.5inch ssd for secondary operation. Also wondering if i can add a single stick of ddr4-2400mhz 16gb ram to the second slot, the cpu is core i7-6700hq quad core @2.59ghz base speed. Ik the cpu is rated for 2133 and i have 16gb currently but id like to swap one of the 8gb sticks for a 16gb stick of ram. Also have 3 distros of linux running on it and windows 10 if that helps. Thanks
