M.2 on HP250G6

[S4GSE]

There is an M.2 connector on this board, but if I install a M.2 drive the laptop does not post or power on. If i remove the M.2 drive everything works.HP250G6 M.2 Connector

That M.2 looks to be an NVME type disk (M key) and your laptop only supports SATA type M.2 disks (B + M key)

yes it is a nvme drive.

does that mean that it will work if I put an non-nvme m.2 drive in?

since I cannot find any info online if it will support a m.2

It's got the slot so obviously designed for an M.2 of some kind. From the manual:

Hard drives

Supports 6.35-cm (2.5-in) SATA hard drives in 9.5- mm (.37-in) and 7.2-mm (.28-in) thicknesses

Support for m.2 SATA SSD
