No, problem. I understand your frustration. I, fortunately, own a model of an Envy 17t (an n000) that does NOT have the m.2 slot disabled. I installed a 512GB m.2 SSD in it, and never had a problem with it being recognized or otherwise not working. In fact, I use it as my Windows boot drive. If it didn't work, I would've been EXTREMELY upset with HP (I still can't figure out why they disabled that slot on certain models of their laptops - it's just beyond me).
Sorry if my previous response to your post was a bit "curt".

Its ok.Life is not fair.Everyone does not get everything equally.Hp decided to disble to m.2 slot on certain models of their laptop.Mine happened to be 15 inch one.The inbuilt HDD is painfully slow in hp laptops.Since i need plenty of storage for files also i cant ditch the 1 TB hdd just like that.So my only option was to add an m.2 ssd which i found to be impossible.Bought this laptop within a year only(4th hp laptop in total since 2003).So cant get a new one anytime soon.Seems like i have to live with it.
