Hi:

 

Below is the link to the Crucial memory/SSD report for your notebook.

As it is configured, there is probably no M.2 slot because your notebook didn't come with the optional M.2 SATA SSD.

 

If you look at chapter 3, page 21,  of the service manual, there are a couple of additional parts that need to be added to accommodate a M.2 SATA SSD.

Solid-state drive board   HP part # 856614-001

Solid-state drive holder  HP part # 858260-001

 

You can open up the notebook, and if there is a M.2 slot present, then you can install a M.2 SATA SSD, not NVMe.
