Has anyone come across a grey strip of paper (thick, almost like thermal paper?) underneath the second SSD drive on the 2022 HP Omen 17? The strip of paper had a qr code that lead to a dead link - cpg56g3laatp00251504si (according to google).
Just installed a 1tb harddrive today. Looks like some wires and a mobo connector ran across the bottom where the SSD would actually touch, but the paper would block those from actually touching. 

Wasn't sure if this should be removed before installation, or kept there to keep the wires from taking in to much heat? Anybody know? thanks!
