The only way anyone can answer your question would be if you included an important piece of information that is missing from your post...the full model number or product number of your notebook.

You're very welcome, Hans.

The product ID you posted is the Windows product ID, not the model of your notebook.

Hi, Hans:

I still can't help you what you want to know...

Do this:

Run the Windows system information app.

Just type System information in the search icon on the task bar.

There will be a 'System SKU' line in the report, about 9 lines down.

That should be the product number of your notebook, so please post that info.

Paul Hi,

I feel an utter fool, sorry to wate your time. Below, hope this is it.

System SKU 6TC73EA#ABU

Model HP Pavillion Laptop 15-cw1xxx

OK, Hans.

Now we are in business.

You have a HP Pavilion 15-cw1507sa notebook.

Here is the link to the product specs:

HP Pavilion - 15-cw1507sa Product Specifications | HP® Support

Below is the link to the service manual for the model series.

c06248787.pdf (hp.com)

According to chapters 1 and 5 of the manual, there is only support for one M.2 NVMe SSD.

If you need more than 256 GB of storage you will have to replace the existing NVMe SSD with one having a greater storage capacity.

The manual does indicate support for a 2.5" drive but since your notebook only came with a M.2 SSD, none of the parts are there to add the drive, so you would have to find and buy those parts listed in chapter 3 of the manual to add a 2.5" drive.

Cheers,

Paul
