yes, thank you.
To answer your previous question: I need the primary drive to be bigger, without having to mount a 2nd drive, esp. when I'm running on battery, esp, when I'm on-the-road.
I can re-use the Toshiba SATA M.2 SSD either with an external enclosure for a few €s, or swap a friends 128 GB SATA M.2 SSD with it who has been considering a larger drive for quite a while. I'll be opening her Notebook in a bit anyway to swap the battery.
2280 form factor 500 GB SATA III M.2 SSDs are really cheap here, around €50, even winners of multiple comparitive tests, like the Seagate Barracuda ST500LMZ30, SAMSUNG 860 EVO MZ-N6E500BW, Western Digital WD Blue WDS500G2B0B and WD Red SA500 WDS500G1R0B. So I think I'll just get one of those (after reading through the reviews when I have time).
Again, I appreciate all your fabulous input
