M.2 nvme slot

[Aorbany91]

My laptop Details:

• ​Model Name: HP Notebook 15-da0091ne
• ​Product Number: 5ES92EA

Could you please clarify the following technical points for this specific motherboard/chassis?

​1. M.2 SSD Compatibility:

​Does the motherboard on this specific model (5ES92EA) have a physical M.2 slot available?

​If yes, does this M.2 slot support NVMe PCIe Gen 3.0 interfaces, or is it limited to M.2 SATA only?

​2. Dual Storage Configuration:

​Can I install the new M.2 SSD as my primary boot drive while keeping the original 1TB HDD installed for data storage?

3.What is the maximum total RAM capacity supported by the motherboard (e.g., 16GB or 32GB)?

​4. Should I buy RAM DDR4 2400MHz to be fitted with the installed RAM)?
