I am wondering if it is possible to get 4 drives instead of the 3 that you can select in the setup section.

Configurator Id: 1777235
I do not care what the case is as long as it has the other hardware required.

I want 4x SSD M.2 (2TB Samsung 960 PRO) (NVM Express) (Extreme Performance)

You can add more storage for sure, but maybe not another m.2 drive. It’s the function of the motherboard and not the case.   That mobo can accommodate 3 m.2 drives .     I haven’t done the search to see if any boards can hold more.

You can add standard SSDs.     A call to DS is needed for some Hardware options since the configurator is setup for the majority.    

Hope this helps.



With 4x sli, the last pciex8 slot shares bandwidth with a m.2 drive.    That drops your 4th card to x4 which isn’t ideal.
