Hello All

Keep Samsung 860 Evo 1TB Installed into Desktop system or Just use the 2 SSD Drives in the system? Currently only using the Sata drive to store my Music that i use for SecondLife Djing with Virtual DJ program, and backup copy of Relaxation Audio that i used to sleep with at times


**Would be first time if i do go the first route that i only used M.2 Drives internally**

Planning dust clean out as soon as possible, so i can take care of the removal if need be then, depending on RL factors that get in the way of conducting the dust clean out, and delay me

There's no "need" to remove it if you have the SATA connections available.
The 860 EVOs are decent drives. Use it till it dies. :-)
