Does the Razer Blade 15 Advanced (2020) have an extra slot for ram or ssd?

For RAM I understand you can upgrade to 64GB. But for the SSD it only has one slot. I spoke to a rep and he said "it might be possible to upgrade the SSD but it might void the warranty" A very on the fence answer... They would not tell me the SSD type used other than M.2 NMVe. I think it is probably M.2 2280 socket M. But I cannot confirm this...

Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2020 - SSD upgrade to 2TB --> SSD type?

Thanks for the feedback. An 8TB drive would be sweet! But the cost :-O The technical rep seemed to imply that upgrading on the 15 Advanced 2020 was risky and may not work. And she said 2TB was the max the system could handle (bios?). So I'm looking at a 2TB upgrade option. I've upgraded plenty of laptops before so I find it odd that it would not work. Maybe they are more woried about warranty voidage?

Razer Blade 15 2020 (Base Edition) Hdd space

I thought there was only one M.2 slot for the primary SSD? Are there actually 2 slots where you can put in a 2nd SSD? Is this for all the 15 2020 models?

Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2021 2nd NVMe SSD installation

I tried to fit a 2nd SSD this evening in my Razer Advanced 2021. Unless I am doing something incorrect there is an engineering design flaw, which is extremely disappointing for such an expensive laptop. The 2nd SSD does not mount correctly and cannot be installed level with the battery. The back end sticks up slightly by around 1mm. Attached are several pictures where you can see how the SSD was installed and the part that stands proud. I put a piece of cardboard you can see clear daylight on the "screw end". The "connection" end is level as it should be. I also found a very recent youtube video where someone found the exact same issue. I simply cannot believe this basic flaw was not detected during the design phase and quality testing. From about 7min in he starts to get to the SSD installation. This guy actually cuts and modifies the bracket himself to get it to fit correctly, which to be honest is utterly ridiculous. The Razer website "SSD installation" video is garbage and do

Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2021 2nd NVMe SSD installation

JokingVortexDoes the empty slot on the Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2021 include the mounting screw for an extra drive, or does one have to be purchased? Also, are there any specific instructions on the screwdriver needed to install the drive mounting screw? You should not have to buy anything. You need a Torx T5 and a PH0 screwdriver for the job.
