Product: OMEN by HP - 17-w253dx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Can I put ssd m.2 Nvme (WD black sn850 500GB) on Omen17-w253dx? 

Because, I cloned Windows from old ssd m.2 sata to new ssd m.2 nvme (WD black sn850 500GB) but it can't find Windows.

Hi:

 

The only information I can provide is that chapter 1 page 3 of the service manual indicates that both SATA and NVMe SSD's are supported, so the WD Black SN850 NVMe SSD should work.

 

OMEN by HP Laptop PCModels 17-w001 through 17-w099 and Models 17-w201 through 17w299 Maintenance and...

 

I suggest trying to clean install W10 on the SSD and see if that works.

 

Make a bootable USB installation flash drive with the media creation tool from the link below.

 

Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

 

Note that the WD Black is a PCIe Gen 4 SSD and your notebook's M.2 slot is only Gen 3, so a Gen 4 NVMe SSD will not run at its maximum advertised sequential read/write speeds.
