Hi, Gaurav:

 

Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook.

 

HP Notebook PCHP 250 G5 Notebook PCHP 256 G5 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide

 

Chapter 1 has the supported drive types.

 

If your notebook has a M.2 slot, it only supports SATA SSD's, not NVMe.

 

Open up the notebook and check to make sure the M.2 slot is there before buying a SATA M.2 SSD.

 

In the 15-ay models listed in chapter 1 of the manual, unless the notebook came with a SATA M.2 SSD from HP, the M.2 slot is not there.

 

Additional parts are used to add a M.2 slot, which you can see in chapter 3.
