Your motherboard  https://support.hp.com/th-en/document/c05329221  is "willow"

there are only two connectors for SATA drives, the white and the blue

If one is empty you can add another drive.

If you need more disk storage you might consider getting a two unit synology nas.  

If you want to speed it up then replace the boot drive with an SSD.  Check reviews of the SSD, do not just get the fastest and biggest as it may not be compatible.  Makes sure the SSD is 512bytes per sector.
