Hello,

I'm new to owning my own PC and I've looked for hours and cant find an answer. 

How many M.2 SSD slots are on my motherboard. Am I able to add an additional one as well as keep the M.2 it came with on the MB? Or do I have to settle for a M.2 SSD and a 2.5 SSD?

It does support dual storage options with M.2 NVMe SSD + 2.5" HDD/SSD therefore you can add 2.5" HDD/SSD to your machine and you need 2 more parts

  • The hard drive cable is available using spare part number L56898-001
  • The hard drive brackets are not available as a spare part          (this is the killer)

You can contact  HP authorized service providers and they can help you.
