Hello, wondering if anyone with this configuration has been successful adding a hard drive in the extra bay? I'm looking for the maximum size that will work with this chipset, etc.
I am hoping for a specific make/model. HP Support told me it's not upgradeable, though obviously it is. I've already added RAM, the machine is customized and upgradeable.
Any specs welcome. Thanks for any expertise/opinions.

It supports dual storage, you can add 2.5" SATA HDD (or SSD) to your machine. You can use up to 2TB because larger (capacity) HDD's are thicker, they won't fit to the slot physically.
Regards.

From my view, WD Black has a good specs with 7200RPM and 64MB of cache. The shop which is very close to my house has 1TB but you can get 2TB elsewhere
