Yes, that drive should work fine.

Found the slot nevermind. Sorry

Yes, I was just going to tell you that that wasn't the slot.

 

The slot is right next to the graphics card slot.

I ran into a little problem. My port for the chip has no screw, where can you get these?  Also is there anything I can use in place of a screw that won't damage components? Can uv damage parts? I have a UV glue that you use a flashlight with

That stinks that HP didn't include a screw.

 

I wouldn't use glue or anything.

 

On the 2.5" SSD you removed...is that attached to the caddy with 4 small screws?

 

Maybe one of those will fit.

 

I think you need a 2 mm in diameter x 3 mm long screw.

 

After you get the SSD installed, you know you have to install Windows on it, correct?

I cloned windows already thanks though
