The ga502 includes two M.2 SSD ports, and mine got one 3.0 x4 512GB pre-installed. This is my first gaming build, so I'm still learning about memory upgrades. The second slot is 3.0 x2, but it looks hard to find. Could be I'm checking the wrong spots? Any recommendations for 3.0 x2 drives would be great! Which brands are solid options? I want as much space as possible! Thanks ahead!

The x2 refers only to the PCIe link speed for that port. Skipping the research, I assume any M.2 that matches the length will work. From the image, it seems like a standard M.2. Doubling the size will make it a bit slower, but still reasonably fast.
