Storage

Your computer supports one of the following configurations:
  • One 2.5-inch hard drive
  • Two 2.5-inch hard drives
  • One 3.5-inch hard drive
  • Two 3.5-inch hard drives
  • One 2.5-inch hard drive and one 3.5-inch hard drive
  • One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive (class 35, 40)
  • One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive (class 35, 40) and one 3.5-inch hard drive
  • One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive (class 35, 40) and one 2.5-inch hard drive/solid-state drive
  • One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive (class 35, 40) and dual 2.5-inch hard drives
  • One M.2 2230/2280 solid-state drive and one M.2 2230 solid-state drive through media card reader
  • One 2.5-inch hard drive and one M.2 16 GB Intel Optane memory
  • Dual 2.5-inch hard drives and one M.2 16 GB Intel Optane memory
  • One 3.5-inch hard drive and one M.2 16 GB Intel Optane memory
  • One 3.5-inch/2.5-inch hard drive and one M.2 16 GB Intel Optane memory
The primary hard drive of your computer varies with the storage configuration. For computers:
  • with a M.2 solid-state drive, the M.2 solid-state drive is the primary drive
  • without a M.2 drive, either the 3.5-inch hard drive or one of the 2.5-inch hard drives is the primary drive

NOTE: : For dual 2.5-inch hard drive and Intel Optane memory configuration, you must disconnect the 2nd hard drive from the controller to support Intel Optane memory in the Windows operating system.
