Hi:

 

According to chapter 1, page 2 of the service manual, only PCIe Gen 4 NVMe SSD's are supported.

 

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

 

The Intel specs for your notebooks processor make no mention of PCIe Gen 5 SSD's being able to run at the Gen 5 speed.

 

Intel Core i712700H Processor 24M Cache up to 4.70 GHz Product Specifications
