Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

If anyone tries this or even 2x4tb drives please update as I just picked up the 2021 model with the 3080 and am curious myself how much storage it can handle. Razer says upgradable to 4tb but are not clear if that’s 2tb per slot or 4tb per slot. I’m guessing they mean 2tb per slot at a max of 4tb total

Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

So eventhough they're both nvme slots only the top can accept the 8tb? Why would this be the case? Have you tested? I have the 3080 2021 model and plan to throw in the max I can fit. Also with tape? Please be as specific as possible.

Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

This is promising news! I ordered the 8tb xtrm-q external nvme from sabrent as a failsafe but was curious what I can fit in the actual system itself. I'm still not clear on what you mean by metal bracket or why you would need tape to secure the ssds together. I've not opened my laptop yet so I may understand more when i do.

I totally understand, this is the 3rd razer blade i've had and all the screws are janky as hell. Hence why i'm in no hurry to dig into them until I had a better idea of if i should. I'm guessing 2 4tb drives would be compatible in this model.

I payed way too much for the sabrent xtrm-q 8tb usb-c external drive but i know it will work atleast for now. 1,600 is a shitload.

Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

my best bet would probably just be to wait until i see what a few more people come up with before i decide what to go with. I still need to open it up and see what you mean about the bracket.

Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

So just to be clear a 4tb and a 2tb would fit fine right? Would a 4tb be he same thickness as an 8tb? With a 4tb would I run in to the same problem fitting the 4tb as with the 8tb and the connector?

Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2021 2nd NVMe SSD installation

Does anyone happen to have a picture handy of the double sided capable slot in the mother board. I’m planning on trying an 8tb ssd as I’m told it works with some tape to hold it in because you can’t use the metal bracket for the ssd. I’m trying to get a picture of the bracket he was talking about before I order the drive or move down to a 4tb if it will also fit in the dual sided slot. One slot will accept a dual sided nvme and the other only a single sided.

Can I install Two Sabrent 8TB M.2 Nvme SSD onto the 2021 15" Advanced Edition Razer Laptop

I’ve read what razer says about max being 4tb, they said the same thing about the last model, yet multiple people have reported an 8tb working just fine. I’m trying to find out if the 8tb sabrent is the same thickness as the 4tb. The guy above said himself with some rigging he was able to get the 8 to work but couldn’t use the bracket. I’m curious if I got the 4tb if I could still used the bracket because it could be slightly thinner possibly.
