Well the manual sure doesnt help any. Im not seeing any additional M2 ports. If you have an empy PCIE slot you mauy be able to use an add in card M2 adaptor, it just wont be bootable. Maybe a few shots of your motherboard with the cover off to see whats in there as the manaul and specs page just show a single M2 drive.

There is only just one M2 slot, so I will be cloning the current 512GB SSD and replacing it with my 1TB ssd :eek:

Just thought i would share what I have done here for future reference in case anyone had the same issues as I did.

There was only 1x M2 slot and I indeed had to clone the default 512GB SSD.

To do so I purchased an enclosure and slotted in my 1TB ssd here: https://www.lazada.sg/products/type-c-usb-31-nvme-solid-state-hard-disk-case-10gbps-pci-e-enclosure-...

Then I downloaded Macrium reflect for the cloning process: https://www.macrium.com/reflectfree

Once it's ready I pretty much just cloned the 512GB to the 1TB Enclsoure and once done, took out the 512Gb from the PC and the 1TB from the enclsoure then swap.
