Hi:

 

Your notebook comes with a 512 GB NVMe M.2 SSD, so you would need to replace the M.2 NVMe SSD with one having a greater storage capacity.

HP only has the service manual for the older model 15-dx0xxx, but it should be of help to you with opening up the notebook and replacing the SSD.

Thank you, but is there another 2.5 inch slot in this PC?

You're very welcome.

 

Unfortunately, I wouldn't know the answer to that question.

 

The service manual for the older model series indicates that there is only one M.2 slot for a SSD, so I don't know if the newer model series added a second slot or not.

 

Probably not.
