Hi All,

Need some help, I need a M.2 SSD but I need it to be 1TB, would anyone know the options I have that are compaitable with this laptop. I have a list of all the SSDs this laptop are compatible with but as 1TB SSDs are now more prevalent I think this list might be outdated.

Lite-on CV1-8B128 128G M.2 SSD
Transcend TS128GMTS800 128G M.2 SSD

TOSHIBA THNSN5256GPU7 256G M.2 NVMe/PCIe SSD
SAMSUNG MZVPV512HDGL 512G M.2 NVMe/PCIe SSD
SAMSUNG MZVLV512HCJH 512G M.2 NVMe/PCIe SSD

Best source would be Gigabyte support. Likely any m.2 drive would work fine in the system.

Yeah I've tried Gigabyte support and all they basically gave was that list I put in my initial question with the list of compatible SSDs.

So I've done some more digging.

The current SSD installed on the laptop is this SSD:

The SSD I'm looking at is this:

They both have the 2280 form factor so I'm assuming this would be okay?

Any help is really appreciated!

Just a follow up, I've managed to find a solution. So I purchased this SSD

It worked perfectly with this laptop. Also on a quick seperate note, this laptop is great for anyone who needs lots of so storage, it has two M.2 SSD Slots and two 2.5" HDD slots. You can have up to 6TB of storage on this laptop if you wanted to!
