I tried to install an M.2 SSD on my laptop (HP 15 - Bs013ne) but when I was about the insert the screw, I realized the hole had no thread.
I looked online for a similar laptop model but theirs laptop had something for the screw to insert to.
How do I install my M.2?

Are you sure the slot is for M.2 SSD ? It should have a hole at the middle of the slot and you can't install M.2 SSD to that slot.

It's the m.2 slot, the hole is the right place for the screw as well. The problem is I can't put a screw in the hole in my laptop. When I looked at a similar model online, that's where the m.2 was installed.
*The first picture is my laptop, the second one is the similar model I found online.

From the following information, it does NOT have M.2 slot for SSD

Can you see 2 holes in the middle or only one ?
Regards.
