Alienware 15 R2 Ram and m.2 upgrade need help
Hi everyone, so i am goig to buy a new A15 next week and some upgrades too, because i have no experience in this i need some help, i looked up in many posts and forums everthin got complicated for me so my question is below.
The system i buy:
Alienware 15 R2
i7-6700HQ
GTX980M 8GB GDDR5
8GB RAM DDR4 (2133Mhz)
1TB HDD
4K IPS 300nit Screen
The upgrades i buy:
2x Samsung 256gb PRO 950 M.2 SSD with Nvme ( my goal is making raid0 for good performance and they going to be boot drives)
2x 16GB HyperX Fury 2133 Ram (total 32gb but heard the bios need settings)
So i would be very happy how i can do thos upgrades and wether they are compatible and possible?
BEST Regards
