Product: HP Envy Notebook Y0F94AV
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My product # is Y0F94AV. It has an i&-7500U CPU @2.70 GHz with 16 GB RAM and 500 GB SSD. I would like to replace the optical drive with a hdd (assuming that is the only place to  put one). I've seen youtube video that show putting a new drive in a caddy that fills the slot for the optical drive.

Have fun trying to find a CD/DVD caddy to do that.

 

There is no HP part replacement to do this.

 

Your manual here.

Look at the video for Removing the Base Enclosure.

 

It will only take a few minutes and a few screws

 

Then you will know for sure.
