To clarify, I have used Crucial BX100 SSDs in my Melcos, not MX500 (see this post). Unfortunately the BX100 is no longer available.

When comparing SSDs with HDDs, the type of HDDs is also an important factor. The factory HDDs in my N1Z/2-H60 were WD Blue 3TB. What are the factory HDDs in your N1Z?

The 2.5" drives in N1Z H60/2 appear to be Toshiba 3TB MQ03ABB300. The model portion is covered with a rectangular absorption pad. They seem customized with 4 spacers attached at 4 corners to provide a standoff from the copper plate. These spacers also receive mounting screws from the bottom side of the plate.
