Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a HP 15-AC168TU 15.6-inch Laptop (Pentium 3825U/8GB/500GB/Windows 10/Integrated Graphics). I want to add

Western Digital WD BLACK SN770 NVMe 250 GB SSD.

It uses PCIe Gen4 interface with speeds up to 5,150MB/s³.

Is this SSD compatible with my laptop??

Hi:

 

Your notebook does not have a M.2 slot to add a SSD. 

 

If by chance it did have one, the slot would only support SATA SSD's not NVMe.

 

If you want to upgrade to a SSD, you will need to replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SATA SSD.

 

See chapter 1 of your notebook's service manual for the supported drive types...
