Inspiron 17 7773 2-in-1 Storage Specs and SSD upgrade
Hello everyone, this is the storage specification of my system, copied from the manual.
I would appreciate your SSD upgrade suggestions compatible with this configuration. We can see the letters SSD and M2L3 next to SSD. If possible, I can have 2 SSD's (one 2.5" and the second one in other slot).
Also please let me know what capacity this machine can take for SSD as upgrade?
Thanks and best regards.

There will not be a capacity limit on the drives -- that said, for M.2 only SATA will work in this model - - not the faster NVMe/PCIe type.

NVMe/PCIe will work with this unit. I just installed a Samsung 970EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD in mine

Hi j lo 44, is it as easy as just installing the Samsung 970EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD, or is there a process I need to follow? Sorry not super tech savy. Thanks for any advice!
