Is there a NVMe to 2.5" adapter that will allow me to connect an M.2 NVMe drive to the extra port? Will it have the same/maximum speed benefits of the NVMe using this adapter and slot? Or should I just use a Samsung PRO/EVO? This will be used for audio and video production.
The description says "512 GB PCIe(R) NVMe(TM) M.2 SSD (2 accessible M.2 slots) but what it has is one NVMe 512GB with the system drive and an empty dummy OMEN branded "drive" with the connections seen in the pictures. (HDD JHDD1)

I've got NO idea what are you trying to do but NO point to connect NVMe drive to 2.5" connector because normal 2.5" connector is for SATA 3 standard. NVMe and SATA 3 won't run same speed, they use different protocols
