M.2 SSD in Asus G20CB

[b_sample1984]

Hello, I recently bought a G20CB with a GTX 1070, i7 6700 and a Toshiba 2TB 7200rpm drive. I wanted to know if it's possible to put a M.2 ssd in my computer. I am unable to find any good info online as there are so many different version of this pc. If my board is compatible with an M.2, which ones can I use, I've read there are different sizes and would need to know which one fit.

Thanks

We'd need to know the exact motherboard.
Also, what does it say in the user manual?

I believe the G20CB has it's own motherboard built by Asus specifically for this design.
I couldn't find anything in the user manual about SSD upgrades.
Checking the model number in cmd just says G20CB

Yes, is the PCIe x4 the slot size for the M.2? I guess there isn't a real way of knowing if my version supports the M.2 without opening it up.

Open it up.
Is there an M.2 slot on the board?

But...it may be limited to length, or size, or specific protocol (SATA vs NVMe).
Without further info, no one can say specifically.
