Hey guys, So now that Im going to open my laptop, Im going to take advantage of it and I want to add some storage. I found an intel optane h10 32gb +1tb ssd for 80 dollars, with only 106 hours of usage and 1 year warranty. I know that my laptop has an available m.2 but I dont know if it will work with this specific m.2. I dont really care if it doesnt work at the advertised speeds, I just want to expand a bit because Im already full.

Its an Acer Predator 17 X GX-792, please if you know if this might work let me know. Because I cant find anything on google, and acer forums seem dead.

Looks like I have 3 m.2 slots:

Port 1 is Mkey (NVME)

Port 2 is B Key (regular m2 ssd speed)
Port 3 is B key (regular m2 ssd speed)

 

Port 1 and 2 are being used by 2 256gb ssds in raid 0, I already got my intel optane ssd. I searched online and found that a guy had my same setup, and he got a nvme ssd, he just changed the 2 ssds to be in port 2 and 3 so he could keep the raid and placed the nvme on port 1. Is it as simply as this? Or do I need to do something else?
