Aurora R7, adding SATA SSD
Hi all,
I have had my R7 for over 3 years and my computer is running out of space. I got a 2TB m2 SSD as the booting drive and a 1TB SATA HDD(the HDD was the original hard drive that comes with the desktop). Now I want to add a new SATA SSD for my R7 and I am not sure if this is possible. I am kind of a noob in this area.
1 Is it possible to add a SATA SSD to my R7?
2 Can I purchase a 4TB SATA SSD and use it on my R7? I have heard that for SATA SSD, only 2TB or less is compatible...is that true?
("the only limit is the over 2TB limit using MBR formatted drives, if you run w10-64bit it will use GPT format by default and there are NO LIMITS, (not till the 2050 year and huge exabyte drives are sold, if ever." by savvy2 in another discussion) I am not sure if I understand it correctly. If I have a win10 64-bit system, then I can add a 4TB SATA SSD?
3 Should I upgrade my power supply if I add the SATA SSD. My original R7 has GTX 1080, 16GB, 1TB HDD and I have upgraded it to GTX 1080(same), 64GB of ram and 2TB m2 SSD(booting drive) + 1TB HDD(same)
4 Does R7 have physical space for an additional SATA SSD? I have heard people saying they just stick the SATA SSD on the side of the R7 and I also have heard people saying there is room to put SATA SSD inside and secure it.
Thanks all!
