Add a SSD in a HP 17 Laptop PC

[Bruno_000]

Hello

I have a HP 17 Laptop PC (HP 17-cp1062nf), with a SSD PCIe® NVMeTM M.2 512 Go. I need more hard drive space, and I have an available slot for a SSD 2.5", with a CN1700 port (see below).

Could you please tell me what spare parts I need in addition to the SSD disk to install it ? 

Thanks very much !!!

Its specs

           https://godgetreview.com/versatile-notebook-hp-17-cp1062nf-specs-and-details/

It supports dual storage with M.2 NVMe SSD + 2.5" HDD (or SSD). It has  512GB M.2 SSD (PCIe NVMe) now, you can add 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD to your machine using standard SSD's on market today such as

HP does not list parts on the Maintenance and Service Guide of the following link

Thank you for your quick reply.

If I understand, I can add a SSD 2.5", but there is no information about how install it. Would you know how I could get this information ?

I did say above "HP does not list parts on the Maintenance and Service Guide of the following link". Normally on the Manual, there is a section to install 2.5" HDD/SSD but on the mentioned manual, HP does not says anything.

But basically you have to do all the steps as from page 37 of the following manual (as an example for my HP Omen 15dc0xxx machine)

Thanks for your answer. But finally I will upgrade the existing SSD M.2 rather than try some cables...
