Cheap and Hackable.But I’m after MacOS rather than the hardware and retrofitting it onto PC machines is fiddly.

While strangely on topic, check if this is either an M2 SSD and/or a 3.5 drive.Lenovo E490 is 45% off until the end of the month, supports an m2 SSD as well as a 3.5” disk.

My X280 has a M2 slot but is too close to the edge to fit a 60mm SSD. The M2 slot is intended for a 42mm internal mobile network dongle and not a drive. There are hacks to use a M2 interface cabled to a CF slot I think to go for dual SSD's if you are really keen.
Good one, you might be in luck. Here is teardown of something even before you have it. You might need a SATA SSD added to the M2 SSD if you just had to do this.Definitely M2 SSD + 3.5”: https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/laptops/thinkpad/thinkpad-edge/E490/p/22TP2TEE490
“Up to 2 drives (1 x M.2 SSD and 1 x HDD)
- HDD / SATA 6.0Gb/s: up to 2TB 5400rpm
- M.2 SSD / PCIe NVMe, PCIe 3.0 x 2: Up to 512GB”
Sure, send me a PM if you're keen - it is only base model from that year though. Otherwise I'm cleaning it up and putting it up for sale later in the week anyway. /end hijackShould we chat...? Unless you want gumtree prices
