Best PCIe4 SSD and RAM upgrade for Razer Blade 15 (mid-2021) Advanced Edition
Hi, I currently want to upgrade my SSD and RAM in my (Mid-2021) Razer Blade 15 Advanced Edition, but I keep getting mixed messages and confused about which one I should get. I checked the bios, and it doesn't show XMP, which means I probably won't get the full speed, 3200mhz if I upgrade the ram. As for the storage, it is believed that the SSD needs to be a specific size to upgrade. Can anyone give me suggestions as to which is the best to buy?

Personally, I use the HyperX Impact (now Kingston FURY Impact) for RAM chips, and a Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB for SSD. They're pretty decent and stable for my system.

For both SSD(NVMe) and RAM I'll recommend Crucial. Never had any problem with them. Also for SSDs you can look for WD Black Series (buy version without radiator) or Samsung (EVO/PRO).

Will the Kingston Fury give you the full 3200mhz speed?

Did you use a heatsink for the second SSD?

My laptop only had one SSD slot. And I used a cheap piece of silicone heatsink on my SSD to try it out.
