What are the max dimensions for an SSD to install with the Prime 4? Is a SATA III 6.0 Gb/s compatible to use with the Prime 4 for optimal performance?
examples: (Samsung 860 PRO SSD 1TB - 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology (MZ-76P1T0BW) or (Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-76E1T0B/AM)

Your Prime 4 can support nearly any standard 2.5” SATA drive on the market—either a solid-state drive (SSD) or hard-disk drive (HDD). Make sure it uses a 2.5” (63.5 mm) form factor and uses (or can use) the exFAT or FAT32 (recommended) file systems. Note: Alternatively, you could install an mSATA (mini-SATA) drive, but make sure you also purchase an adapter that enables it to fit into a typical 2.5” SATA interface.
To add to this, don’t go the extra thick disk route. Keep it at 9mm (ooo there a song for that…).
Thank you very much for the info and quick response!
