How is it ? Does it worth it ?

I have the m14 r2, got it for free and is amazing, costumer support is amazing and the build quality is good

 

Hello,

 

Guys I'm thinking to change from MacBook Pro 9,2 to Alienware 17 R3 and I am sure most of you knows in Alienware there is M.2 x2 Slots and 1 SATA. Anyway my question is: 

 

What if I installed two of Samsung 850 EVO - 500GB - M.2 SATA.. for OS boot and games,.. Can I merge them together so they became 1 TB ??

Also, I will install another Samsung 850 EVO - 500GB - 2.5-Inch SATA For Data like pics or backups. Or maybe the opposite ??!!

 

Advanced thanks ;).

Don't worry I won't do that,,... Actually I will clone the original HDD then I will put all the listed SSD's in thats Alienware,.. You know Video/Photo editing and gaming requires too much storage.. The issue I will be facing is that How could I change those SSDs after doing. x.x
