Hi:

 

Chapter 1 of the service manual indicates that there is only support for one M.2 MVMe SSD.

 

Maintenance and Service Guide (hp.com)

 

There is no support to add a 2.5" drive.

 

This is a peer-to-peer forum. 

 

We do not work for or represent HP, so we are unable to reply on HP's behalf regarding the warranty terms and conditions.

 

I recommend you contact HP customer service and seek a definite answer from HP.

 

Chapter 5 of the service manual indicates that working inside the notebook is not a customer-authorized procedure.

No. Here is the Manual:

 

Manual 

 

The only storage that can be installed is one NVME M.2 SSD. Page 33 shows a good image of the inside of the laptop. You can see the M.2 SSD next to the battery and there is no space for a 2.5 inch disk or place to attach it.
