I bought this gaming laptop for my son on black friday here is a link to the ad https://www.walmart.com/ip/Acid-FHD-NVIDIA-GDDR5-HP-Shadow-GTX-3-Intel-GeForce-Pavilion-Black-8GB-GB...   256gb is not much hd space so I was wondering if there is a slot and maybe a how to guide on upgrading storage on this laptop I didnt think a external hdd would be good for gaming so any help would be great thank you

Your link is not available now, probably they pulled it down after the event. Its official specs

There is a slot for 2.5" HDD/SSD but you need following parts

 

  •    The hard drive cable is available using spare part number L56898-001
  •    The hard drive brackets are not available as a spare part. (unfortunately)

and very hard to find the cable because it is new

Now, you have to wait or talking with HP authorized service providers. They will help you.
