Purchased a new Pavilion EC0101AX Laptop. I understand from the manual that my laptop supports the below,
Dual storage configurations
256 GB, PCIe, NVMe, TLC, solid-state drive + 1 TB, 7200 rpm hard drive
128 GB, PCIe, NVMe, TLC, solid-state drive + 1 TB, 7200 rpm hard drive
128 GB, PCIe, NVMe, TLC, solid-state drive + 1 TB, 5400 rpm hard drive
M.2, NVMe solid-state drive
1 TB, PCIe-3 × 4, TLC
512 GB, PCIe-3 × 4, TLC
512 GB, PCIe, value
256 GB, PCIe-3 × 4, TLC
256 GB, PCIe, value
1. Kingston A400 240G SATA M.2 2280 Internal SSD (SA400M8/240GIN)
2. Western Digital WD Green 240 GB M.2 2280 SATA Internal Solid State Drive (WDS240G2G0B)
I want to keep my SATA as well as have the SSD. Also do I need to purchase the thermal plate or is it already present in the laptop.

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Do the drives you've listed have the same storage as the ones tested by HP? If yes, it should work fine.
If no, please consult a local tech before upgrading, as HP does not recommend upgrades or hardware changes as the device is equipped with parts that perform at its optimal performance by design, that said, the upgradeable parts listed by HP articles are purely for your ease, as the decision to upgrade will be at your own discretion.
If the information I've provided was helpful, give us some reinforcement by clicking the "Accept as solution" button, that'll help us and others see that we've got the answers!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
