@ nipaph Thanks, might try that if I find some time!

@ Jagd Would be a nice idea, but as the previous person said, even without having opened it I don’t see any space for a 2.5″ drive. I suspect it might even be too tight for an M2 or MSATA, especially since you’ll need to fit some sort of adaptor as well – although this one I wouldn’t completely exclude. Thermals might become a problem with those though, as they tend to get warm and there wouldn’t be any space. Finally, there’d bee the question as to how you could connect the drive to the computer – not sure if you can link it up to the POGO connector somehow. I’d suspect (!) it would run at USB2.0 speeds max though, which might be a bit of a waste for an SSD drive.

That being said, if you find a way of pulling this off I’d nonetheless be very interested in hearing about it! 🙂 (Even though I personally might not have a need for an extra internal hard drive)
