I want to add a 2nd drive to the computer. I know the main drive is a nvme M.2280 drive. What other kind of drive can you put in? I've researched but I haven't been able to tell from the documentation that exists.

There are models sold in the series that come configured with a 2.5" hard drive and a NVMe SSD such as this one that has the same motherboard as your model.

The parts list shows that the hard drive is a 2.5" drive, and it has the part number for the HDD cable (I doubt that your PC has the cable or mounting hardware included to add a 2.5" drive).

If it were me, I'd replace the 1 TB NVMe SSD and install one with a storage capacity that would need.

 

Crucial sells NVMe SSD's up to 4 TB in the model:
