Hi,

There is only space for one M2 SSD in your notebook.

Here:

M2 slot

You already have a 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD installed, so you can not add another one. You could upgrade the one installed to a higher capacity one (no limit)

Hope it helps,

David

Hi,

OK. I see what you mean. It is possible to install a second M2 SATA3 SSD (not PCIe NVMe). However, you will need to purchase:

Solid-state drive bracket                  part number L20458-001

Solid-state drive connector board    part number L22542-001

Solid-state drive cable                      part number L20456-001

The parts are going to be difficult to find. You can try an online search or nearest HP service center.

However, the best idea (faster and cheaper) is to replace the M2 PCIe NVMe to a larger capacity one. There is no limit to capacity. So you could insert a 1TB or 2TB M2 PCIe NVMe SSD and then reinstall the OS on it.
