I'm new so... Hello from Spain!!
Ok, now to the problem,
I've got an Asus Rog Zephyrus S GX701GWR, it has 16GB of soldered ram on the motherboard and it has a single free ram slot for adding another module, it has a single M.2 slot (M key) with a 500GB NVME Intel 660p connected to it and the problem is that I'm running low in space. I partitioned it in 2 partitions of 250GB each one and applied a deduplication mod on the second partition to save even more space. but I need more storage and the only way is getting a bigger M.2 ssd, wich is more expensive than getting a same size disk to double the storage. It doen't have any mpcie slot, the wifi chip is also soldered.
I checked it in HWINFO and I got this about the slot:

So the M.2 slot works at 4x so I thought about connecting something to get 2 M.2 slots so I can connect 2 SSDs, because I think 4x speeds are enough for 2 SSDs with less than 2GB/s speeds each one, so what I'm looking for is a single M.2 to dual M.2 adapter, but I don't know if that adapter exists.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
