There is a single port for a hard disk, not two.  

 

Yes, you would have to replace the hard disk with the new SSD.

 

There is "support for M.2 SATA storage (Port 0) (models with i7 processors and 4 GB discrete graphics memory only)"

The M.2 SATA SSD must be the TLC memory type.

Yes, you need to use the SSD to replace the HDD, because laptop is hard to have two hard drive. But fortunately, you can replace your hard drive without reinstalling Windows.
