Hi,

It has an M2 slot with support for M2 SATA3 SSD (not PCIe NVMe)

So, you can either insert an M2 SATA3 SSD or replace the 2.5" HDD with a 2.5" SATA3 SSD

Examples:

While you are in there, I would also insert a 4GB module of DDR4 2400MHz RAM in the empty slot.

Hello, Thanks for the answer.

If I'm not mistaken, M.2 SATA and 2.5" SATA doesn't have speed differences right?

So is it possilbe if I use both of it, using my existing 2.5" HDD alongside M.2 SATA SSD as OS Partition?

 

About RAM, yes I'm planned to buy 4GB DDR4 2400Mhz and place it in slot#2.

HP Recommended

Yes, you can use both together. You should install the OS and software on the SSD and use the HDD for storage.

It will give a great boost to everyday performance of the PC.

 

Regards,

David

Hello, another question.

If I buy M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD, will it compatible with my Laptop? (speed limited to M.2 SATA specs)

After doing research, the price is of M.2 SATA and NVMe SSD is similar.
