That's an image I hadn't seen before. So the drive caddies are in opposite corners of the case. When you get the PC,  see if there's one or two separate SATA power cables bundled under/behind the PSU.  They both should have male SATA power connectors. If there are two, you're good to go. If there's only one cable with two SATA power connectors on it, you likely will need a SATA power cable extension. In this case, you'll have decide whether you need a male>male extender or a female>male depending on gender of the "middle" connector on the cable. Male SATA drive power connector looks like this: [IMAGE] Up to you to decide whether to use Macrium to image the new NVME SSD and/or the SATA SSD. After you run Windows Update to get Win 11 fully updated and latest drivers installed, I'd run Macrium on the NVME SSD before doing anything else. That gives a baseline image, just in case.  Shouldn't be a problem reconfiguring the XPS 8950 to use AHCI, but a baseline image gives you that extra bit of protection.  I'd get in habit of imaging the NVME SSD on a regular basis, especially after installing lots of software. As for the SATA SSD, if there are any files on that drive you might need on the XPS 8950 which aren't backed up elsewhere, or if you ever want to boot the old PC again, a Macrium image is the way to go. A Macrium image on an external USB HDD can be "mounted" like a  normal drive on any PC, allowing you to open/edit any file in the image and copy it somewhere outside the image. If you ever want to boot the old PC again, you could restore its Macrium image from the external USB drive onto a blank drive installed in that PC.  You'd need the bootable USB stick Macrium can create to boot the other PC and transfer the image. You'll also need that stick if you ever need to restore an image onto the NVME SSD, so I'd make it when you have Macrium running and set it aside, if the need comes up...
I've just bought an XPS 8950, which came with a 1 TB, M.2, PCIe NVMe, SSD installed. I'm wondering if I'm able to salvage the hard drives from my previous pc to add to it, those were: 1st Hard Disk - 500GB Samsung 850 EVO 2.5" SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (upto 540MB/sR | 520MB/sW) 2nd Hard Disk - 6TB WD BLACK 3.5" WD6001FZWX, SATA 6 Gb/s, 128MB CACHE (7200rpm) I'm lousy when it comes to tech but I've been told installing hard drives is relatively simple. The questions I have are: Thanks in advance for any help.
