Yes it absolutely does. 

 

Service Manual

 

Go to p. 34 for procedure to remove the back cover and once off see this inside:

 

M.2 slot circled in redM.2 slot circled in red

 

The M.2 slot can take a 2280 form factor SATA or PCie/NVME M.2 SSD. You definitely want the NVME kind as it is about 4 or 5 times faster. Something like this:

 

https://www.amazon.in/Samsung-Internal-Solid-State-MZ-V7S500BW/dp/B07MFBLN7K/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=970...

 

You can install this alongside the hard drive and move Windows over to the SSD. Post back if you have any further questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.

You could but why would you? The cost is not very much different and the speed is way different.
