Hello,

 

I have an empty 2.5" SSD bay (or at least it looks so) in my zBook and I would like to use it to expand my storage. Currently only mSATA SSD is installed.

 

Are there any special requirements for the SSD to goes into that bay or any 2.5" SSD with SATA connector would suffice? Also, there is an expansion card slot (not sure what's the exact name for that) on top of the bay if that makes any difference.

 

Thanks

The "Expansion Card Slot" is for a "WWAN" card.

I believe that "HP Hard drive hardware kit " is already present. What I had in mind by "Expansion Card Slot" is apparently a smart card reader board:
