I thought it would be a big upgrade from my 10 year old PC. It's not. I'm going to sell it.

There is a second NVMe M.2 slot for a 2280; however, you'll need to buy a stand-off kit, since it does not come with one. Super cheap on Amazon.
If you have a SATA SSD (the big square one) the laptop comes with a caddy and SATA adapter cable for that, too.
I was able to easily install a second 2280 drive and move all of my folders over to that, so the main drive is only for the OS and program files and such.

I did have issues adding 32 GB of RAM. I had a G.Skill 16GB stick from 2021 that I swapped in without issue (never opened before I got this laptop). When I ordered another identical stick (2023) and installed it - BSOD. I exchanged it and the second stick gave me the same issue. KERNEL SECURITY CHECK FAILURE. The 2021 stick worked in EITHER sodimm slot; the others didn't work in either.
It seems odd that two sticks from G.Skill would be bad, but who knows.

Finally, my laptop was NOT in excellent condition. In fact, only a scratched up laptop was in the plain box; no charger, literally nothing else. I eventually got them to exchange it for a brand new laptop for the same $435 I paid for the open box excellent, but that was extremely lucky on my part!!! YMMV.
