That's the maximum capacity of a 2.5" 9mm tall drive. You can buy Seagate 4TB & 5TB drives in 2.5" which are 15mm tall. [0] [1]

- Theodores 9y agoI did this with a square NUC. You need to remove the drive bracket and rely on a bit of tape instead. It will fit but I used the M2 slot to do cache for the big drive rather than have slow storage.
- riobard 9y ago15mm drives are not really suitable for internal installation due to limited height in most NUCs.
