Adding SSD for Upgrading my Notebook

[Vishal_09]

I want to upgrade my HP NOTEBOOK-15g-dr0006tx, by adding an additional 250gb SSD.

I know my Notebook is having M.2 Slot but I am confused whether it supports M.2 SATA (AHCI) or M.2 PCIe (NVMe).

I want to know which M.2 type SSD should I purchase.

Please, guide me in solving my query.

Hi,

It supports both types of SSD. Naturally, you should get the faster M2 PCIe NVMe SDD of your preferred brand.

something like the

there is no limit to the capacity of the SSD.

On page 46 of service manual you can see the steps to install the drive

You can then either transfer the OS to the SSD (clone) or reinstall the OS on the SSD.

So, the M.2 slot will support both SATA and PCIe.

I have read many articles stating for PCIe NVMe to work properly, the Motherboard should also support the NVMe settings.

Is that correct?

The motherboard will support M2 PCIe NVMe and its settings.
