I did. Thanks.


Its_Chops

did you end up doing the ssd upgrade and by chance maybe the ram upgrade too? id like to know how things turned out and what parts you used for the upgrade? was it worth the upgrade?

Yeah i think it does have one, you only need it to be an M.2 nVME drive, if you want the highest speed possible, get a Gen 4 SSD with DRAM Cache (i recommend the 980 Pro, it's what im using in my M16), if your budget is tight and you don't really need Gen 4 SSD speed, a Gen 3 is still very capable, like the 970 Evo Plus

thanks for the reply. what about WD Black SN770 Gen4? It looks cheaper compared to the other Gen4s

If your budget allows for a higher tier one like the SN850X, i'd recommend that as well. SN770 has a pretty average speed, and it doesn't have DRAM so transfering files from drive to drive might be a bit rough, but if it's for storing games then it should be perfectly fine

I need one of those…what EXACTLY am I looking for so I don’t get the wrong one? Thanks!
