Add a second SSD, if the motherboard has a SATA port. A SATA SSD is still more than fast enough as a second drive.

Thank you for the suggestion, I’ll have to open up the machine to see if the motherboard has a SATA port. Adding a second SSD doesn’t sound too hard assuming it is possible.

Probably has a pretty standard motherboard which most probably has SATA ports (looks like this on mine, the cables look like this and the PSU should have some spare power connectors). Once you have those, just plug in and you should be good to go. Not sure if SATA is hot-pluggable though; better to power off first.
