XPS 8930, adding an additional SSD
I would like to add an SSD drive but my XPS 8930 only has one data cable plugged into the existing hard drive. What do I need?

For SATA SSD, you can use HDD adapter for 2.5" mounting bracket kit.
For faster NVMe SSD, you install SSD onto M.2 slot on motherboard. If the M.2 slot being used. Add a second NVMe SSD to an NVMe to PCIe x4 adapter. Then installing the adapter to the PCIe x4 slot (bottom slot on motherboard).

A SATA data cable, preferably with one 90 degree connector SATA Data Cable . . . and a SATA SSD, of course.
