Precision 7530, maximum storage?

Good Morning:

Currently, in my Dell Precision 7530, I have two PC601 NVMe SK Hynix 1TB SSD's (M.2.2280 PCIe3x4). So that means I currently have 2TB of storage. I need to increase my storage.

Dell's documentation is confusion. It states that the maximum is 2TB but is that per SSD or per System. I find it hard to believe that the max per system is 2TB. I can understand the limitation per drive, but per system.

Any comments, thoughts or guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Louis

    Thank you! We have received the required details. We will work the issue. You may also receive assistance or suggestions from the community members.

    The online Precision 7530 Setup and specifications guide PDF shows the maximum as 8TB (three 2TB SSD, 1 2TB HDD) =

    The Dell documentation lists the maximum storage based on what drives where available and being offered by Dell at the time of release for that system.  There should be no hard cap on the maximum storage space per NVME drive.

    Your storage options for this laptop are as follows:

    With 6 Cell Battery-
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available

    With 4 Cell Battery-
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available
    m.2 2280 NVME drive up to any size available or any 2.5" SATA drive up to 9mm thickness
