Alienware Aurora R7 M.2 SSD Replacement Option.
I have an Aurora r7 that did not come with an M.2 drive. (I'm not quite sure whether or not it comes with one) and was looking for an affordable, but still well working one, and came across this one.
https://www.amazon.com/XPG-SX8200-240GB-Gen3x4-ASX8200NP-240GT-C/dp/B07H53JT77?imprToken=B0hAv5eBOVaaQXxCTC43Qw&slotNum=14&SubscriptionId=AKIAI54EFMLLIRW7NUMQ&tag=aps0b6-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B07BLNFSQN&th=1 I have talked to some people about it and most say it would be worth it to just take the risk since there doesn't seem to be very much available information about Aurora r7 M.2 motherboard specifics. If anyone knows whether this SSD would work or not, I would very much appreciate it!

That drive is made by Adata which has a reputation of making very good drives at competitive prices. I have an Adata M.2 SSD as my main drive in my home built and it works great. As for the compatibility, according to Crucial, an M.2 NVME/PCIe SSD is compatible. It should work just fine.
