Hi everyone, I have a question

Can someone help?

Hi

I would check the Crucial and Kingston websites for upgrades, and then make a decision.

I want to know if it can be installed or not, because they provided details. 

- 3.5-inch, 5400 RPM, SATA 3.0 hard drive, 4 TB  
- 3.5-inch, 7200 RPM, SATA 3.0 hard drive, up to 2 TB  
- M.2 2230 solid-state drive, PCIe 3.0 Gen x4 NVMe, Class 35, up to 512 GB  

Please clarify if these drives are compatible for installation.

there is no size limit of HDD compatibility with Optiplex.  Both PC running UEFI bios and HDD is initialized in GPT.

No size limit of M.2 ssd either.  2280 is standard physical size, but 2230 works too for 3060 SFF and 7080 MT
