Hi:

 

If your notebook has an Intel Core processor, there is a M.2 slot that supports SATA SSD"s only, not NVMe.

 

If it has a Pentium or Celeron processor, there is no M.2 slot and you would need to replace the 2.5" hard drive with a 2.5" SSD.

 

See chapter 1 of the service manual for the supported drive types.
