Hello! I have  HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk1065ur and I want to know: does it have two slots for SSD or only one? If it have two, I want to know what type or types (if they are different ) of SSD there is?

It doesn't matter what type of SSD it  has because I've just opened it and I've seen a slot for 2.5' HDD or SSD with SATA III connection. There is a plastic plug on this place, I will remove it and install my new 2.5' SSD. Thank you for your answers 🙂

There are two M.2 slots, but one is used for the WIFI module.

 

Your notebook, as far as I can tell, has one legacy hard disk and an M.2 NVME SSD installed.

 

Your notebook will support NVMe and SATA-3 M.2 SSD products.

The NVMe M.2 SSD products have faster memory access which give them much better performance than the SATA-3 M.2 SSD products.

 

Does the document at the hyperlink below match your notebook's current hardware configuration?

The link sends me to dk1065tx page but I have  dk1065ur.  Do they have similar component layout?  My notebook doesn't have HDD, it has one SSD only,

They do have a similar layout. The last two letters are for the region it is marketed to. They should be virtually identical with minor differences.

 

Is that an M.2 SSD that is installed form the factory?

Yes, I didn't change anything there. So I have an empty SATA III slot where I can install 2,5' SSD , am I right?

No.

That is unlikely.

 

Use the Device Manager to see what it shows as the part name and brand of the SSD that is installed.

 

Post it here in your next reply.

 

If you already have an SSD installed in one of the M.2 slots, the other one is being used for the WIFI module.
