Help with upgrading Storage and RAM

I am looking to upgrade Storage, and if possible, RAM.
When I contacted ASUS they said:
RAM: up to 16GB 2400MHz DDR4 memory (Please observe that the RAM is integrated and can“t be upgraded)

SSD: 128GB/256GB SATA III SSD

512GB PCIe x2 SSD

1TB PCIe x4 SSD

But I can not find the extra PCIE slots.
I only found 1.

Can anyone help me? Maybe find a schema for the motherboard? Or something.

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi!

Correct, there is just only one PCI-E slot in there. So you can't install a extra SSD internally. You can only replace it for one with more capacity.

Maximum it can support is a NVMI PCI-E running at 4x - 1TB is the maximum supported memory.

Also, the RAM is soldered on the motherboard, so this cannot be changed.

You can find some more info here regarding the board: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pIY1CRD...

Sorry for the bad news...

I think the person you spoke, does not have a clue regarding this model what it can support or what kind of ports are on there. Also this: "Maximum supported RAM is 16GB, please check if you can replace it all". You cannot replace the ram at all. The maximum config from factory was most likely 16GB. The one you spoke probably didn't have a clue regarding the board.
