    One last question: What is the configuration for the 256GB model? Is it one 256 GB SSD or two 128 GB SSDs? Also, what size are the SSDs, since there are a few sizes of M.2?

    There is only 1 SATA M.2 slot on the new razer blade 14". As for the size, crack it open and find out.

    One important thing to note is that it supports a SATA M.2 drive, not a PCIe M.2 drive.
