Precision 7740 Max RAM upgrade and fastest M2
Hi, I just bought a 7740 and would like to set it up with the fastest available hardware.
Has anybody successfully installed 128 GB DDR4-3200 Ram (4x 32 GB)?
If I have to stick with the DDR4-2666 RAM, could someone recommend me a specific module that works? I've googled a bit and found that a lot of people were having problems with some modules
As the laptop will run more or less 24/7 I'm wondering what the fastest recommended storage option would be.
I'm thinking about the Samsung 980 1 TB (If I've seen it correctly, the Pro version isn't compatible)
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance for your answers

The CPU controls the memory speed, so installing faster RAM may work - but won't run any faster than it presently does.
The system will support any standard PCIe 3 X4 drive -- and while it will work with a PCIe 4 drive, it won't run that drive at full speed.
