Questions about this item

What PCIe generation does the 2 TB M.2 SSD use and what throughput ceiling does that impose?

The drive runs on PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe, so sequential reads and writes are limited to the 4.0 lane bandwidth rather than the newer 5.0 ceiling.

What are the exact chassis dimensions and weight so I can confirm it fits my bag or desk mount?

It measures 15.71" wide, 11.14" deep and 0.74" to 1.05" high, and weighs 5.73 lbs.

How is the 96 GB DDR5 upgrade installed and which step do builders often miss?

HIDevolution installs two 48 GB modules at 5600 MHz in dual channel; the step often missed is verifying the BIOS reports both sticks at the rated speed after the thermal-paste upgrade.
