Thanks for your helps!

According to the Maintenance and Service Guide it does support NVMe:

Hi,

It will support either a M2 SATA3 drive or a much faster M2 PCIe NVMe drive.

I would check if the slot is present on the motherboard before buying drive as sometimes HP notebooks which did not come with the M2 SSD are missing the physical slot on motherboard

M2 slot

On page 33 of service manual you can see how to remove the bottom cover to take a look. There are two screws under the rubber feet which you need to peel back to remove screw.

If the slot is present you can insert an M2 SSD. You will need to reinstall the OS on the SSD. Best done by removing the mechanical drive. Installing the OS on the SSD and then reinserting the mechanical drive.

Hope it helps,
