This review is from: Alienware 17 ANW17-2143SLV 17.3-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers)
There seems to be a lot of confusion about the SSD slots and what will work with these machines. The slots themselves look like PCIe slots, but are apparently not. The specs say Sata SSD. The m.2 "standard" (which apparently is not one) is supposed to apply.
The machine does run hot as many have noted on other reviews. Right where you rest your hands, too. They left out the optical drive supposedly to make room for more cooling and drives, but apparently then took away the extra standard 2.5 slot that the previous models had. Good or bad, this might be spelled out better in the sales pitches, as well as the Amazon recommendations for the correct SSD boards that fit the machine.
I spent a day researching and trying to decipher who was right and who was wrong on the forums.
