Victus 16 2023 2. M.2 SSD Slot

[BerkShawn]

Hello,

I was wondering if the 2. M.2 SSD slot in the 2023 Victus 16 (Core i7-13700H RTX 4070 Product Code: 7P6K6EA) is fully functional. I looked up this document ( https://kaas.hpcloud.hp.com/pdf-public/pdf_7660048_en-US-1.pdf ) from the official HP Support site but I was not sure if the second slot is operational. And from what I understood the slots support only up to 1TB's of storage. Is that information true? 

Thank you for your time and have a great day.

Hi:

Chapter 1 of the service manual indicates that HP offered NVMe SSD's up to 1 TB in the model series.

Chapter 5, page 34 indicates that there are two M.2 SSD slots.  The one on the right is for a secondary M.2 NVMe SSD.

Two solid-state drive slots are available on the computer, as shown by callout (1) in the following
illustration. The primary drive is on the right side of the illustration.

No one here can 100% guarantee a larger capacity NVMe SSD such as 2 TB will work since that capacity is not listed in the manual, but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't.

You have a great day too!

Thank you a lot! I also thought so but was unable to reach HP by any means at this point. I tried to do the online chat but that requires a serial no that I don't have because I havent bought the device yet. I feel like HP should make it easier to reach them considering I even tried Facebook as a means but the auto reciever bot was down so I was not able to reach them. Nonetheless thank you for your reply!
