Hi,

 

I'd like to know if the WWAN slot (I think it's a PCIE port) in the elitebook 745 g2 (see image) could be used to insert a  M.2 ssd as additional storage device. The only information I have is from this forum (http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/elitebook-700-series-elitebook-725-g2-elitebook-745-g2-and-e... where it's said that this operation would cause the system to not recognise the module. Can anybody confirm this from your experience?

 

It's a shame I cannot use that slot for this purpose. Is there a way to bypass the problem?

 

Thank you in advance for your help

Please see the HP EliteBook 745 G2 HP Notebook PC and EliteBook 755 G2 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service Guide for information about these model. Based on the MSG, it doesn't appear that the WWAN slot will support an M.2 SSD.

 

If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you very much for your quick reply (which I've seen just now). 

 

You confirmed my doubt. I'll try another way to expand my internal storage (sigh!).
