No, it is internal part. Machine has internal 2.5" bay for HDD/SSD but NO connector/cable which is part # L57362-001

The series supports DUAL storage: one M.2 SSD and  one 2.5" HDD/SSD. Its specs

 

    https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06468558

 

which says it has  512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD (M.2 now) therefore you can add a 2.5" HDD/SSD to your machine but you need Hard drive connector/cable part # L57362-001 which is not available from HP Online. Please try Amazon, Newegg ... or eBay.

Hello and thanks for replying.

With "Hard drive connector/cable" you mean to use it like an external HDD?

Or you mean a caddy rack adapter?
