Question MSI Pro z790-P WiFi SSD Counts?

[Timothy Johnson]

As my subject line roughly asks: How many SSDs can be slotted into the MSI Pro Z790-P WiFi?

 

[Timothy Johnson]

I recently purchased a pre-built PC that has an MSI Pro Z790-P but it came with a single 1 TB SSD. It was explained to me that it should be able to support another M.2 SSD, but I unfortunately could not find another slot. I purchased a second, WD 4TB NvME SSD and would like to install it. Does anyone know if this MB has a slot for it and if so, where it might be placed?

spec sheet says 4 M.2 supported.



"where it might be placed?"

Should be in semi-plain sight on motherboard.
