@ctigre , welcome to the Community.

 

There is only "One M.2 socket 3, Key M, (2280/2242)" socket for a M.2, SSD.  The new SSD's are very light and can be mounted in many different ways.  I have seen members use velcro in very inventive ways to install them.  You will need a SATA power cable on your PSU and a SATA port on your motherboard to install it.

Thanking you for replying But when I look up on the HP website my desktop  it shows under product specifications? 

Expansion Slots 2 M.2; 1 PCIe x16; 1 PCIe x1

What does that mean ?

The 2, M.2 sockets are for a wifi M.2 and a M.2, SSD.  The PCIe x16 is for a video card and the PCIe x1 is for peripheral cards, such as, a network adapter.  The wifi M.2 socket can't be used for anything else.
