Product: Elite desk 800 gen5
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Trying to install a 2230 form factor M.2 SSD, but the PC is missing the screw standoff in both M.2 slots. The issue has been posted here before: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/I-am-trying-to-install-a-2230-M...

The OP finds an image he thinks would work, but goes down the path of using a 2230 to 2280 adapter. I can't do that as I have custom installed a 15mm NAS 2.5in HDD that prevents that. Does anyone have any details on what terms or part numbers I can search for to find this part?

The socket in the main board is M4x0.7mm pitch thread & the M.2 screw is an M2x0.4mm pitch thread.

Thanks.

You may need a kit like these

This one worked fine on my Omen but it is out of stock

Rather not have to buy a whole kit for just 2x standoffs. Here is some images of what I'm after. I'm wondering if they come with the drive if you order a HP genuine OEM.
