Tower ECT1250, TB limit

<Moved out of XPS Desktops, into Dell Pro Desktops board. DELL-Admin>

I am looking at a Tower ECT1250. The website says "Your desktop is designed to support up to 2TB SSD and 2TB HDD storage". Is this really true?! I already have a 3TB I'd want to transfer. Also, can the Tower ECT1250 handle two HDDs?

The manual shows support for just one M.2 drive and one 3.5" drive (which could also work with a 2.5" SSD).

Others have reported issued sourcing cables to connect added drives, so you may want to look at a system with more expansion possibility.

@ejn63​ Thanks!  Any thoughts on the 2 TB limit- is it real?

Unlikely.  Just about anything that physically fits will work.
