Alienware R13 - Hard Drive Question
Hello everyone!
I took advantage of the sale and ordered the Alienware Aurora r13 3080 32BGRam Machine (I know there are so many configurations).
It comes with a 1TB M2 2280 ssd, which isnt enough space for me ( lots of video editing and gaming).
In the user manuals it says it can take up to a 2TB M2 2280 ssd BUT I would really like to add the Acer Predator GM7000 4TB NVMe Gaming SSD as a second drive and add a 3.5 8TB Barracuda Drive. At some point if needed I will fill the 2.5".
My questions are as follows:
- Can the second SSD slot fit a 4GB SSD instead of the up to 2TB listed in manual?
- Because my R13 doesnt come with a drive in the 3.5 or 2.5 bays does it have all the power cables?
- The manual says contact support but they told me I cannot use those bays as it didnt come with them and I should get different model lol.
Thanks in advance for any clarity you can provide.

1. yes.
2. you would have to look what exactly is available for cables. It should come with a 3.5 and a 2.5 bay, 1 of each.

Thank you so much! I’ll go ahead and order the 4TB as secondary main drive!
Thank you!
