Hello Together 

 

I tried to upgrade my HP 14s-dq0003nz with a SSD.

According to Crucial that should be possible https://www.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp---compaq/hp-14s-dq0003nz.

But i can't see any m.2 slots on this laptop.

Where is this slot or is it even possible to upgrade to a ssd.

 

Thanks a lot

Hi:

 

Notebooks with the Pentium and Celeron processors or eMMC drives do not have M.2 slots.

 

Only the models with the Intel core processors have M.2 slots.

 

Unfortunately, this is not indicated in chapter 1 of the service manual like it usually is.

Is there any way that you can remove that object in the upper left corner of your screenshot?

 

That may be hiding a SATA port like this model has which also has an eMMC drive.

Usually, you cannot upgrade eMMC drives at all.
