I'm trying to upgrade my Alienware Aurora R13 with more storage. I've noticed one M.2 PCIe NVMe slot is already used, but I can't seem to locate the second one. Can anyone help me figure out where it's located? Here's a link to a photo for context: https://imgur.com/a/POsYhhr.

Just to confirm, it’s indeed to the right of your memory slots. If you still can’t find it, maybe check out some guides or diagrams that can provide a visual reference.
It's under the sauce. Just kidding! But seriously, keep your eyes peeled near the RAM dimms. You might be overlooking it!
You can't miss it; it's marked in plain sight. Next time, maybe check your manual or look up the diagram online. You’ll find it in the one open space on the motherboard.
Look to the right of your RAM slots; that's usually where the second M.2 slot is located. Make sure to check for labeling on your motherboard to help identify it.
The second slot is beside the WAN card. If you're looking at the motherboard, there should be an area labeled ‘M.2 SSD Thermal Pad Area.’ If this is your first time installing one, I recommend watching some YouTube tutorials to get a better idea of the installation process.
