HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop PC TG01-0000i (8BG56AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

I currently have an HP desktop TG01 - 1160 Gaming desktop that I bought on July 22nd. When I bought it it only had 1 M.2 SSD stick in it for 500GB. Reading the specifications it says it has 2 M.2 slots as you can see in the pic below with the highlighted section. I bought a second SSD 1tb m.2 stick thinking I can simply install the second. When I opened the case I don't see the 2nd slot. Maybe I am not understanding where it is on the Motherboard or I am looking in the wrong please. If someone can assist me in finding this second slot that would be great.

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the product specs for your PC.

If you look at the motherboard specs link it has one slot for a SSD which is filled, and one slot for a WLAN adapter which can only be used for a WLAN adapter and that is also filled.

  • One M.2 socket 3, Key M, (2280/2242) -- This slot is for the SSD
