    DOes anyone who already has this machine (or a similar one) can recommend a compatible memory stick and additional HDD?

    It looks like it can fit a 2.5 or an extra SSD.

    I found the manual here:
    https://us.msi.com/product/support_sku/24255#down-manual
    It looks to have two additional hard drive bays.

    HDD: 1 x SATA interface for 2.5” HDD device
    SSD: 1 x M.2 slot, supports PCIe or SATA SSD device,
    1 x M.2 slot, supports PCIe SSD device (optional)
