Hello, just recieved https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ocuk...rtx-4070-super-pre-built-gami-fs-pb04-ep.html

Would like to install the SSD from my old PC ontop of the one already in here. So wondering is a) https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0CCN9QWKT compatible with the motherboard or...whatever it needs to be compatible with.

Then where and how do I connect it? On my old PC the cable management was non existent so it was pretty easy to find what was needed to just plug and now, however everything in this new one is very tight and tucked away and I really dont want to ruin 1.5k of PC by blundering around the day I get it. Pretty sure I can just take the motherboard? connection from the old PC and that hooks up just fine, its just the wider power? one I cant seem to find.

Any help would be really appreciated.
 
I'm not sure what your prebuild came with, it might need an additional psu cable attached, if it's modular, or there might already be one tucked away near the PSU.

Your best bet is to contact ocuk customer service via phone or email as they will know how they build their machines. The forum is seperate from the store.

To connect a 2.5" SATA SSD in your PC you need:
1x 2.5" drive bay in the case to secure it, with 4 screws (the screws are normally provided with the case). In rare cases, the drive bay is toolless and you can just slide the drive in and it will click into place.
1x SATA data cable (this is between the SATA port on the motherboard and the SSD). These are generic cables, cheap and widely available.
1x SATA power cable from the PSU to the SSD. For some PSUs, these are hard wired, but more commonly they're attached separately. If you don't have one, you'd need to as OCUK, because I'm afraid they're awkward to purchase separately because PSU cables are brand and model specific.
