   heheh almost similar situation as me but i always have my 850 (sata) on the top. I've already migrated to the 960 but haven't move it to the top.
Still wondering should i replace the 850 with another 970 or wait for something better since i'm no where near maxing the space on the 970 on my frequent games. 

I'm still butt hurt from the ram prices

	So you are running your OS drive 960 from the 2nd slot? I see. With my case 1TB NVME is more than enough for now, as I have another regular SSD & HDD to store everything, when time comes for more drive at least I know that I have a 2nd m.2 slot to expand with, albeit the need to remind itself that it only supports PCIe most likely.

	yup my 970 is on the bottom slot but thats because i'm lazy to switch it back to the top i might as well do it tonight after cloning back my 970 to the 850 for safe keeping and when you expand you'll surely get pci-e interface type ones as they are so much faster (sata m.2 maxed at 530MB/s) while pci-e/nvme currently doing 2300MB/s and havent scratched the surface and sata ones will be phased out eventually unless they keep around as a cheaper solution with a larger size
