Product: HP EliteBook 840 G3 (T9X72EA)

I am looking to buy the above EliteBook, but I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what the read and write speeds are for the 256GB M.2 PCIe SSD that comes with this specific version (T9X72EA).

 

To clarify, the SSD for this version uses a PCIe interface instead of the usual SATA interface, this means it should reach much faster speeds than a SATA SSD. Other SSDs of this type that I have seen boast speeds of upto 1400MB/s read and 1000MB/s write. If this SSD is not capable of such speeds, would the PCIe interface support a replacement high performance SSD and retain these high speeds?

 

Additionally, is this M.2 PCIe interface a replacement to the standard SATA interface, or can I also install a second drive into the vacant SATA interface?

 

Thank you for your assistance.

 

Note: I have already tried contacting both sales support and technical support to no avail.
