Probably being a bit thick, but where is the SSD drive that came with the PC when I bought it?

I stuck an extra 1TB SSD in a while ago which was easy and used a spare ‘slot’.

i can see the 2TB HDD that came with the PC originally.

However, I would like to stick a bigger SSD in in place of the small original 256GB one but can’t see where it is! Unless it’s somehow embedded in the motherboard and isn’t replaceable?

According to this page

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06523597.pdf

The slot is identified as item #13.   Just to the right of the memory slots.  You can see the screw mounting toward the top of the picture.  It may actually have a cover over the M2 drive.

In this document is it shown as #2.
