Unfortunately, Acer sticks with the 2280 + 22110 SSD configurations so you might find it hard to come across a compatible 22110 stick. And here are the RAM chip slots, which are empty. Our unit came with 16GB of DDR4-2400 RAM provided by only one SK Hynix chip. After cloning and substituting the NVMe SSD in the first slot for the SATA SSD, will the second (currently unused) slot accept the SATA SSD? Hello, got my Acer Predator 17 G9-793-718K today and ordered a second one for me (Samsung 960 EVO M.2 SSD - 250GB PCIe 3.0 NVMe). Unfortunately, I had to realize that this fits only in the first of the two slots and not in the second.
