SER 5 with External Gpu

Hassan81

Hi,

I have recently bought Beelink SER 5 Ryzen 7 5800H - 32 gb ram - 1 TB M2 Nvme drive, from bestbuy.com
I am going to install an external gpu Zotac 3060 12gb with it by replacing the Nvme drive.
I will install the OS on an SSD.
I have the following questions.

1 - Do you have a video tutorial that guides on how to disassemble this particular model to replace the NVme drive and install the ssd drive ? Please share some instructions to do so if there is no video tutorial.

2 - Instead of installing the OS again on the new SSD, is it possible to use the default Nvme drive as the main drive externally ? If this is possible then what do ineed to achieve this ?

So after doing some research, i found out that i can use an external nvme enclosure to use my drive. So I thought why not get an nvme to sata adapter to use the drive internally, sata port will be faster and that will free my external usb ports for other devices.
Please confirm the following.

1 - Is it possible to boot my mini pc using an external drive ?

2 - Which Nvme to Sata adaptor would be suitable for this purpose ?
