Product: Victus by HP 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-s1000 (90P69AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I'm attempting to upgrade my hard-drive from the 512gb it comes with to a 2TB Crucial PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD.

The issue I ran into is that there's only one slot on my laptop. Is there any other way to clone my hard-drive to the new one so i can complete this upgrade?

You can buy a USB-C/USB 3 to NVMe enclosure.

 

Something like this:

 

Amazon.com: SSK Aluminum M.2 NVME SATA SSD Enclosure Adapter, USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) to NVME PCI-E ...

 

Install the Crucial SSD in the enclosure and use your cloning software to clone the existing drive to the new one.
