It meets the requirements, NAND m.2 as shown here
Windows should show around 223GB for a 240GB SSD when formatted. Are you sure that is enough?
Just how are you going to do this? https://www.easeus.com/partition-master/clone-larger-hdd-to-smaller-ssd.html

Hi again
I recently purchased an m.2 ssd and memory stick
the memory stick went in no problem and i now have 16gb total
the ssd didnt unfortunately
The ssd didnt come with a screw to install it with
So i will need to buy my own screw
Do you know which screw will work with my HP desktop (pavilion 690-0020) so i can install the ssd?
Thanks
