Ended up solving by ordering a 2TB NVMe I’ll replace a 512GB in my main PC with, so at least if I’m out of pocket it’s for an upgrade. It’s my bad for having used the PC for months before geting around to the install or searching part numbers, that’s why it’s mild
In general these are shipped with an NVMe and then the expansion slot is for a 2.5 inch sata sdd. So this has been modified at some point and the seller probably should have stated.
it’s a ‘refurb’, listings for those by third-party sellers are usually lacking in details, just saying ‘ssd’–not what type or brand. technically, op got what he ordered.
Yeah I get that technically he did get what he ordered and you can’t argue with it. Still, it’s dodgy.
