@Gamer4Life1,

 

Welcome to our HP User Forum!

 

According to: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c05811928, your Tampa2 motherboard (SSID: 8437) has one M.2 Gen3 x4 NVMe SSD socket -see picture below. It would fit/was designed for an industry standard 2280 M.2 NVMe SSD, such as this one: Amazon.com: SAMSUNG 980 SSD 1TB PCle 3.0x4, NVMe M.2 2280, Internal Solid State Drive, Storage for P....

 

The other M.2 socket "Key A" is for a WLAN/Wi-Fi card.

 

Of course, you could use a PCIe to M.2 NVMe adapter to fit an additional M.2 NVMe SSD in your second PCIe x16 slot, such as this one: https://www.amazon.com/RIITOP-PCIe-NVMe-Adapter-Converter/dp/B07GFDVXVJ/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=FHCSQ25....
