Hi:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

You will have to open it up first and confirm that the M.2 board and connector are present.

 

You model is one of those where the M.2 slot is on an optional board, and that board is almost always missing when the notebook did not come from HP with a M.2 SSD.

 

If your notebook by some unusual circumstance has the M.2 board, it will only support a SATA M.2 SSD, not an NVMe one.
