The Samsung 870 EVO SATA III SSD 1TB 2.5” Internal SSD that you want to add is a good mid range storage drive only, but its not the quickest or best drive to add to this desktop. I suggest that if you want to add an additional drive for gaming or editing you should add a secondary 1TB PCIe4x4 M.2 SSD drive as it will be at least 10 times quicker than the Samsung 2.5" SSD drive.

The below caption is your PO3-630G desktops mainboard and all its layout descriptions, I've highlighted all the drive spots for your desktop. This desktop has at #21 & #22 plugs for 2x SATA-3 connectors for 2x of either 3.5" mechanical HDDs or 2,5" SSD drives like the Samsung 2.5" SSD drive or 2x 2.5" mechanical drives, but the quickest and the best drives are at slots #25 SSD1 (should be used for the boot M.2 SSD drive) & slot #15 SSD2 M.2 which are both slots for a Gen 4x4 type M.2 SSD drives. Buy a 990 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD 1TB type drive as its a much better and quicker drive, Good luck and hope this helps you out
