There is no M.2 slot. Your model may not have the Star Wars appearance but it has the same hardware as the Star Wars models.
The Manual:
mentions an M.2 option but there is nowhere on the motherboard to put one.
Max memory is 16 gigs (2 x 8 of DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM and you can see the two slots in the picture above.
Any standard OEM type memory will work Samsung, Hynix, or Crucial is a good option.
Memory module (DDR3L-1600):
8-GB 693374-005
Post back with any more questions and please accept as solution if this is the info you needed.
