HP Elitbook 840 g1 - SSD M.2 slot

[quintju78]

Bonjour!

As you can see on the image below, I am after a compatible SSD M.2 disk (ideally 256GB). I have highlited in red the only one  "hole" in the connector as most of the SSD M2 card I see online have two "holes".

Any recommendation would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Julien

Hi,

Please check the following document (page 36):

But looks like this is designed to support Intel SRT (unless your machine was built late in 2013). Please check the following discussions: many people also try):
