Where and which SSD should I upgrade my PC?
Hello!
I'm having problems with the storage space on my PC and would like to upgrade. I currently only have a 1 terabyte SSD installed, but I need more. At least 2 terabytes more would be ideal for my needs.
The problem is that I don't really know much about it and don't know where I have free SSD slots on the motherboard and which ones fit into them.
I have a Gigabyte B760 Gaming x DDR4 motherboard.
Can anyone who knows about this tell me where there are free SSD slots on the motherboard that I can upgrade to, and which SSDs fit in them, and if so, recommend which ones?
I am grateful for any help!
Best regards.

total. you have 3 M.2 slots. (see manual)
If you only need to store, I would suggest the “normal” SSDs or even HDDs with sata (4x available). the latter are most favorable per TB. but also the slowest. but recommended as a pure storage extension.
You get a maximum of only 2 TB on a SSD. If you want to take larger hard drives, you need to put on HDDs. Once under the graphics card under the cooler would be a slot and twice between the PCIe slots.
As a SSD, I would SN 770 recommended by WD Black as I have it myself.
That’s complete bullshit
No, it’s not, but if he wants to work with M.2, that’s the way. In SATA, however, it is a maximum of 4 TB.
And as I read it out, it’s M.2 that he wants to get.
may be, but there is
Yes but these are completely overpriced
M.2 gives up to 8TB, SATA with 15,36TB, SAS with 30,72TB
