Can I use ExpressCard slot of HP ProBook 4430s to install NVMe?  If yes how is that possible?

Hi:

 

Unfortunately, that would not be possible.

 

Your PC does not have the architecture to support NVMe drives.

 

The chipset doesn't support NVMe SSD's.  The BIOS does not support NVMe SSD's.

 

You have to have a much newer PC that supports NVMe drives.

 

The only option you have for a SSD is to replace the 2.5" mechanical hard drive with a 2.5" SSD.
