Depends on the motherboard as far as M.2 SSD’s go. I got this model with a ASROCK Z390 Phantom Gaming 4s. Mine has 1 slot for m.2 SSD. Capable of accommodating every size from 1-5 inches I believe. But there is also an open PCIe slot that you can install an SSD into. I bought a WD black SN750 that was 3 inches 1TB. I’d say you’re only limited by how much you can afford as far as storage space. More memory doesn’t necessarily mean a longer or bigger NVMe m.2 SSD. And as long as the motherboard has a Z390 chipset is will support i9 or i7 9th gen CPUs. Once you get to 10th gen the socket changes and thus you’ll need a different mobo. Also, check out the ibuypower subreddit. It’s basically a forum for all questions relating to IBP machines.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello, You can upgrade to an i9 without upgrading the motherboard. There is space in the system to accommodate for more storage, so you would not need to upgrade the motherboard to add SSDs either.
