SSD on the 15-cc665CL ?

[delease]

Just picked up the laptop from costco, i7 8th gen. Came with a 1gb HDD but looking to add a SSD for the OS on the m.2 but I can not find ANY documentation on this model for what m.2 this will accept.

There are few manuals, specially the following one

             http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c05705784.pdf

There is a hit and miss. Because your machine has Single storage configutaion with note [16] but no one can find it

Therefore the chance to have M.2 slot is very slim to none. We can ONLY know when opening the machine. The above book shows you how.

Hp has not released any Service Videos for the 15-cc600 series yet.

But I think the 15-cc500 series looks just the same.

The 15-cc500 series has an M.2 slot.

Just to make sure you have the M.2 slot remove the Base Enclosure. " Just 5 screws. "

Click on Base Enclosure.

Weird, thought i posted a reply earlier but it didn't go thru.

But i found a posting here about the 15 series on here, someone replied that the 15-cc6xx series took a PCIe NVMe SSD.
Seeing as this is a 15-cc6xx model, then this should take a NVMe M.2 too?

For use only on computer models with model numbers 15-cc1xx and 15-cc6xx:

• 512-GB, 2280, Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe), Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) solid-state drive
• 256-GB, 2280, PCIe, NVMe solid-state drive

For use on all computer models:

• 512-GB, 2280 M.2 SATA-3 solid-state drive with triple-level cell (TLC)
• 256-GB, 2280 M.2 SATA-3 solid-state drive with TLC
• 128-GB, 2280 M.2 SATA-3 solid-state drive with TLC
• 256-GB, 2280 M.2 SATA-3 solid-state drive
• 128-GB, 2280 M.2 SATA-3 solid-state drive

I popped the back off. Does have a m.2 slot. One notch so NVME correct?

Any suggestions what drive to get? Trying to stay at $100.

m.2 in yellow circle / mobo type in red?

I popped the back case, and put a m.2, but system does not recognize it.

Anyone has a success?

And on the website, there is no BIOS/driver for downloading.

What type of m.2 did you put in?

[myeric]

Samsung 128G

Sorry, was not clear.  SATA or PCIe?

[myeric]

PCIe
