Product: HP Gaming Pavilion - 15-cx0140tx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I want to add SSD to my laptop  HP Gaming Pavilion - 15-cx0140tx.

 

What is the supported generation of M.2 NVME SSD for this laptop.

 

From what I have checked on Micron's website up to Gen 3 of  M.2 NVME SSD is supported.

I have not got any documents from HP that say this is the supported generation.

 

Can anyone confirm ?

You are correct.

 

Your PC's M.2 slot is PCIe Gen 3.0.

 

A Gen 4.0 SSD should work fine but it will not run at its maximum advertised read/write speeds from the Gen 3 slot.

 

You have to look up your PC's processor specs on the Intel website to get the PCIe version.

 

Intel® Core™ i5-8300H Processor

 

PCI Express Revision  3.0
