HP EliteBook 850 G5

How can I find that HP EliteBook 850 G5  has a slot for pluging/installing a 2.5 inch form factor internal SSD.  Is it mentioned in its specification document. I know that it come with M.2 SSD but I want to put another internal SSD in it.

This is the best picture of the inside from the Service Manual:

 

M.2 slot circled in redM.2 slot circled in red

 

The specs and the picture clarify that there is NO SLOT for any additional storage disk, just the single M.2 SSD slot. So the only way to add extra storage capacity is to install a larger capacity M.2 disk. There is no 2.5 inch SATA bay nor is there a place to put a DVD drive in it. 

 

Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if its the info you needed.

From the following manual

 

   http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c06189562.pdf

 

2.5" secondary storage is not an option.
