Hello,
My laptop comes with 1 tb wd gen 4 SSD. I want to upgrade it to 2 TB. But I am not sure, if it has second SSD slot. If it has second SSD slot, then I am planning to buy WD sn850x 1tb without heat sink SSD.
I have following queries: -
1) Will I be able to update to WD sn850x 1 TB SSD?
2) Will this SSD be a perfect choice for my laptop model?
3) If yes, how to verify slot compatibility before purchase?
Thank you,
-Vipul

Its manual
https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_5972494_en-US-1.pdf
which does not say anything about DUAL storage options (page 2) but it says Primary storage that implies a secondary but what.
My suggestion: replace existing drive with 2TB and during the process you may see second M.2 slot and up you go you can have 3TB (2TB + old 1TB).
Hope this makes sense
Regards,
