Msi b450 carbon pro ac motherboard ssd question/help?

[Paul51]

Hi.

I have a msi b450 carbon pro ac motherboard and an m2 ssd device in the m2 slot.
After reading here on the description of the motherboard is says if you scroll down slightly number 10, 2x m2?
I am gathering that means i can attack another m2 ssd drive for storage?
But upon looking at my motherboard there doesn't seem to be a place where i can attach the/a new m2 ssd drive?
As i am looking at expanding on my current ssd, m2 ssd and 2 other hdd storage drives.
Am i being thick or how do i go about adding storage to my pc?
If someone could link me too a top end budget m2 or normal ssd gaming storage drive that would be great.
Looking at 1tb min.
Thanks

Which slot are you currently using?

First one is under the shield above the top pci-e 16x slot and the second one is right below the bottom pci-e 1x slot..

Argghhh brilliant thanks for that i am currently using the one where it says msi in the middle of the motherboard.
So i can get another m2 ssd storage drive is the other slot version 3 or 4 is it worth the extra money getting the m2 version 4.0 staorage drive?
It will mainly be for gaming hopefully 3.0 will be enough.
Can you recomend any off overclockers m2 drives 1tb bargains for gaming?

It’ll be gen 3, be aware when/if you install the second SSD, it disables all but the top PCIe slot.

for gaming, maybe look at the crucial p2, western digital sn550, should be fine for game drive.

Thanks for helping i have ordered the Western digital sn550.
