Hi All!

Am looking for some options please for an HDD or SSD to put into my NUC i5 gen10. The link is below:

I have already got a 512GB M.2 SSD, but there is another space for a 2.5” 7mm SATA SSD/HDD.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I am running Linux Mint and using it for plex mainly.

Preferably the biggest storage the better, I read online that the HDD with 2.5”/7mm don’t really go past 4tb, so if I want to go above that do I need to get a SSD?

I have seen a few drives that could work:

    7mm don’t go past 2TB. You’ll be lucky to find a 4TB at 9.5mm most are 15mm.

    Your best bet is definitely an SSD. I’d opt for Samsung personally.
