Hi all,

I’m looking to add an additional SSD to my Dell XPS 8950 and looking for some reassurance that I’m understanding things correctly. After looking at [the specifications](https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-uk/xps-8950-desktop/xps-8950-setup-and-specifications/storage?guid=guid-df903cc2-226d-400b-9a83-1fcf31c562c2&lang=en-us/) I think a Samsung 990 Pro 2TB with heatsink would fit - it’s also on Black Friday sale and has great reviews. Is anybody able to confirm? I’ve checked and there is an available slot on the motherboard (pic in comments)

Thanks!

    Thanks, the PC came with a 1TB 2280 SSD and a 1TB HDD. Here’s a photo of the SSD that’s already there. I’m looking to add another SSD to the free slot, but just want to make sure I’m buying the right thing

      I don’t see another m.2 slot in that picture. I can see the one with the card in it already, that one is clearly 2230

      edit- I saw the other pic you posted of the free slot, thats also 2230
