Hi, I have an msi gl63 8rc laptop from msi, and it contains a 1 tb hard drive. I was wondering if i could upgrade it or get it upgraded from someone by adding an ssd alongside the hard drive, i cant find anything on the internet even remotely related to motherboard design, teardowns. or upgrades. Any help would be much appreciateed!

You can

1. Swap 2.5 inch HDD for 2.5 inch SSD (SATA)

2. Add a M.2 SSD (SATA or NVMe)
